I loved this woman. Such courage. Her photo should accompany the word indomitable in the dictionary. Alas, not many like her. Maybe Lady Thatcher and Camille Paglia, two more of my icons. I reread The Rage and the Pride the other night. It is comparable to Zola's "J'Accuse" that appeared in L'Aurore. In it she described the execution of three women who had been to a beauty parlor. Despicable savages. And Rosie has the nerve to compare modern day Christians to such venal filth.
She reminds me of myself a lot so I just ordered the Rage and the Pride and will read it through even though I'm not much of a novel reader.
