'Southern Women' Celebrates Iconic, Trailblazing Women Of The South

"Southern women ⁠— unlike women from Boston, Des Moines or

"Redefining the Southern Belle" got more responses than anything
she'd written in her nearly 30-year career. Much was positive, some
not, but all opening up further exploration of what a "Southern
woman" meant then and now.
