Zhenshchiny, o kotorykh dumaiu nochami - Mia Kankimiaki

Mia Kankimiaki leaves work, sells her house and travels to Africa to see how Karen Blixen, a Danish writer who owned a coffee plantation in the 1920s and hunted wild animals in the savannah, lived. She is inspired by the brave travellers and discoverers of the 19th century, who wandered alone to the most dangerous places on the planet. In Florence, Mia searches for forgotten paintings by Renaissance artists who created grandiose canvases, despite all the limitations of the era. In Japan, she follows the trail of Yayoi Kusama, the most famous artist of our time.
Rediscovering the world's undeservedly forgotten female names, in her journey Mia learns an inspired life and finds his writing voice. This book is an exciting journey through a variety of countries and eras, showing what women are capable of, free from stereotypes and conventions!
