This anthology captures the experiences of Maltese women navigating a patriarchal and capitalist world. It marks a critical moment in history and culture, shedding light on acts of discrimination and societal pressures while showcasing the remarkable strength of women who challenge these constraints imposed upon them. Featuring works in Maltese, the collection amplifies feminine voices and emotions that are integral to the country’s cultural and linguistic heritage. Each creative contribution, whether poetry, story, translation, or artwork, stands as a testament to the enduring resilience and spirit of Maltese women.
