Additional notes:
Graham Rawle, creator of the much-loved 'Lost Consonants" series, has painstakingly collected words and phrases from 1960s women's magazines in order to tell Norma's subversive story. Once removed from their context, the words have been reassembled to make the unique novel that is Woman's World - rich with the flavour and moral tone of the 'donor' material and as poignant as it is joyful.
