About this ebook
Based on the Tony Award–winning Broadway musical Suffs, this compelling historical novel follows a group of suffragists in the final years of the fight for women’s right to vote in America, as they risk everything to demand change and make history.
It’s 1913, and best friends Alice and Lucy are headed to Washington, D.C., with a big, impossible plan – to organize the first ever protest march down Pennsylvania Avenue. But how will they do it when it’s never been done?
Enter the suffs. Organizing this march leads Alice and Lucy on an epic campaign, full of passionate, loud, stubborn women fighting against the president, the public, and often each other, for a better world. They’ll meet icons of the movement, clash with many, and discover who they really are…all while asking: How far are you willing to go for what you believe in?
It’s a journey that will change the suffs, and the country, forever.
