Have you been called… or thought of yourself as:

• Too Emotional?
• Too Big?
• Too Ambitious?
• Too Sexual?
• Too Weird?
• Too Loud?
• Too…?

For generations, women have been told to make themselves smaller: quieter, softer, less demanding, less visible. “Too much” has been used as a weapon — a way of silencing, shaming and diminishing women who refuse to fit neatly into the boundaries set for them.

Too Much Woman says: enough.

This vibrant third Womancraft Compendium is a celebration of women in all their complexity, contradiction and glorious muchness. Through poetry, essays, personal reflections, and art of all kinds, more than 70 writers and artists from around the world explore what it means to be a woman who cannot – and will not – be contained.

These are voices reclaiming desire, ambition, anger, pleasure, creativity, vulnerability, power and possibility. Voices speaking to the experiences of those who have been judged, shamed or silenced for being too visible, too passionate, too complicated, too sexual, too powerful – simply too woman.

Come and reclaim your muchness.
Embrace your enoughness.
And discover that perhaps you were never too much at all.

With an introduction and foreword by Lucy H. Pearce, founder of Womancraft Publishing.

10% of proceeds from the book will be donated to women’s charities.
