We still have a ways to go, but wow, we‘ve come a long way from 1949. I get the sense that this whole “I am no feminist” angle and “she does her own housework, cooking, shopping, washing and ironing” was to make this groundbreaking woman‘s memoir more palatable, less threatening. See my previous post for the great cover. She sounds like an interesting lady. Look forward to reading more.
Ruthiella Unfortunately you are probably right about the spin the publisher put on the blurb to make her seem less threatening and more “feminine”. 9mo
