Inez Haynes Gillmore Bücher

Inez Haynes Irwin was a prominent American feminist author and journalist, known for her active role in the suffragist movement and her leadership in the National Women's Party. Under her previous name, Inez Haynes Gillmore, she authored over 40 books. Despite her bold contributions to feminism, she described herself as timid. Irwin's friendship with fellow feminist Mary MacLane highlighted her vibrant personality, which MacLane captured in newspaper articles in 1910.

Five men survive a South Seas shipwreck and wash up on a seemingly deserted beach, only to discover that five beautiful, winged women live on the island as well. Dazzled and soon in love, the men will do anything to possess these flying women . . . but what they plan, and how the magical women respond, is tellingly--and very predictably--human. First published in 1914, and praised by Ursula K. LeGuin as "a real rediscovery--romantic, satiric, funny, fanciful, and a good read," Angel Island is an adventure story and a genre-defining tale about women's rights.
