Miu Miu Summer Reads: Furthering Miu Miu’s commitment to contemporary thought and culture, books are the protagonists of Summer Reads, a series of special initiatives taking place in selected cities worldwide.
In preparation for the summer season, visitors will be gifted copies of two out of three seminal texts: Alba de Céspedes Forbidden Notebook, Sibilla Aleramo’s A Woman and Jane Austen’s Persuasion.
Situated in different places and at disparate moments in history, each text was selected for its author’s brave and powerfully influential status as female creator. All their work, continually reappraised, explores concerns and ideologies that remain relevant to this day. Their voices are unique, a reflection on the lives of extraordinary women - lives as daughters, lovers, wives, mothers - as expressed through the written word. Breaking with convention and the boundaries of gender, they are united as an inspiration to every generation of women that comes after them.
