The Fourth Pig, Naomi Mitchison, 1936, England/Scotland/Ireland (Scotland), SHORT STORIES

"This book is a collection of tales by Naomi Mitchison (1897-1999) - a champion of the lower classes, a vocal feminist and strong advocate for women’s rights (particularly birth control), taking up one banner after another for progressive causes, aiding in the Botswana independence movement, visiting African Americans and share-croppers in the U.S. south; all while writing scores of books over her long lifetime."

(Ted Schmeckpeper, review)
