Suffragette City -- Paperback / softback (New ed)

Why does a ghost from the last century - a stroppy suffragette - show up uninvited at the apartment of fainthearted-feminist artist Albertine Andrews? Is it because Albertine hasn't has sex for 187 days and is starting to hallucinate? Or is the spectral great-great grandmother really bearing wisdom for a stressed out pre-Millenial world gone mad.
