Woman’s Inhumanity to Woman
Books • September 2008 • Views: 315
Chesler, author of the bestselling Woman and Madness, explores the “shadow side” of sisterhood: women treating each other badly. How could her own mother have been so mean to her? How could someone who “borrowed” published ideas from her not acknowledge her or say “thank you”? In this treatise on breaking the “cycle of cruelty” between women, controversial feminist Chesler addresses why sisters fight, why some women prefer to work for men rather than for women, and other highly subjective cases of woman/woman cruelty.
