When Women Were Dragons is a historical fantasy novel that reimagines the societal constraints and unspoken rage of women in the 1950s, where under immense pressure and societal silencing, some women spontaneously transform into dragons. The story follows Alexas, a young woman grappling with the mysteries surrounding her own mother's abrupt departure and the unspoken truths about the fiery transformations that are quietly erased from official records and public memory. Through Alexas's journey of self-discovery and investigation, the novel explores themes of female anger, the power of collective memory, and the fantastical manifestation of suppressed identities in a world determined to forget their fiery existence.
