Join Eliza and guest host, Sophie Perinot, as we celebrate the launch of Confessions of a Grammar Queen, the bold, feminist, and delightfully bookish novel that proves copyediting is a revolutionary act. We’re talking red pencils, office politics, feminist book clubs, and what it means to rewrite the rules—one sentence (and sexist boss) at a time.
