What makes women successful at work?

Join Allison Pearson, whose heroine juggles re-entry to a city job with teenagers and ageing parents in How Hard Can It Be?, and Caroline Slocock, author of People Like Us: Margaret Thatcher and Me, a feminist’s close up account of our first female PM and the events that led her to resign.

Both celebrate the power and the pain of being women.
