THE lives of women from across Bolton are being showcased at an event at the Manchester International Festival.
The book 100 Women, 100 Stories are included in eye-catching artwork Big Ben Lying Down With Political Books which was unveiled in Piccadilly Gardens on July 2.
The 42m sculpture of London’s landmark clocktower by Argentine artist Marta Minujin will lie almost horizontally and covered in 20,000 copies of 150 books which have shaped British politics.
Among these books, which reflect Manchester’s unique and independent spirit and are designed to spark a fresh conversation, is 100 Women, 100 Stories. This was created by Bolton-based award-winning entrepreneur Gulnaz Brennan.
