Krátky popis
Well-behaved women don't make history: difficult women do. Helen
Lewis argues that feminism's success is down to complicated,
contradictory, imperfect women, who fought each other as well as
fighting for equal rights. Too many of these pioneers have been
whitewashed or forgotten in our modern search for feel-good,
inspirational heroines.It's time to reclaim the history of feminism
as a history of difficult women. In this book, you'll meet the
working-class suffragettes who advocated bombings and arson, the
princess who discovered why so many women were having bad sex, the
pioneer of the refuge movement who became a men's rights activist,
the 'striker in a sari' who terrified Margaret Thatcher, the
wronged Victorian wife who definitely wasn't sleeping with the
prime minister, and the lesbian politician who outraged the
country. Taking the story up to the present with the
twenty-first-century campaign for abortion services, Helen Lewis
reveals the unvarnished - and unfinished - history of women's
rights. Drawing on archival research and interviews, Difficult
Women is a funny, fearless and sometimes shocking narrative
history, which shows why the feminist movement has succeeded - and
what it should do next.The battle is difficult, and we must be
difficult too.
