Y’know an awful lot of Terry Pratchett’s books are concerned with how powerful women are when they get angry and how important anger is as a driving force to defend what is right and to tackle injustice.

A lot of his most interesting and most deeply moral characters are angry ones. Granny Weatherwax, Sam Vimes, Tiffany Aching. All are to a large extent driven to do good by anger.

And that honestly means a lot to me.

Terry was an angry man. This is not the same as saying he was a bad man. He held a righteous fury, the kind that comes from looking at the world, and knowing just how much better it could be if only we stopped being bastards. He held a genuine belief that people can and do change the world for the better, not by big things, but by the little. He believed in the kindness of others, and that kindness means more than wishing well and prayers. He knew the difference between being good and doing good, and that you technically couldn’t be the first without the latter.

He was angry at the world because he loved it, and he wanted us to feel the same, to not feel helpless, to know that something can be done, to know that anger is not just the tool of abusers and tyrants but the chisel by which The People might chip away at oppression and fear and bring it crumbling down. He gave us the drive needed to believe in hope. because he wanted to make the world better with words and not violence.

I hope he knows that he did.

I will always love how Tonker is in Monstrous Regiment. She’s angry and distrusting and violent towards people who try to hurt Lofty but she’s never really portrayed as crazy or anything like that. No one looks at her and goes “we should fix her”, because she’s angry for a very very good reason.

She and Lofty went through hell and that doesn’t make them bad people. Tonker is never made to apologize for her harshness, and even when Polly is horrified that Lofty killed two people, it’s made clear that it was about survival and Polly backs off.

They obviously have a way darker backstory than a lot of Discworld women, but I love how it’s treated. Women are often villanized for anger stemming from violence inflicted by men, but Tonker and Lofty aren’t. They get to be angry, they get to learn to trust the squad, and then they get to burn down the building they were abused in and run off into the sunset together, and I think that’s beautiful. Not once does it feel like the reader is supposed to judge them for how they cope with what happened to them.
