Feminist Hardbacks Book Box
A luxe box: three beautiful hardbacks exploring feminism, resistance, women’s history, and the patriarchy from different angles. A wonderful gift for the feminist in your life.
Annabelle Hirsch’s History of Women in 101 objects takes a wide ranging and diverse look at women’s history and gender roles through the ages, from a 30,000 year old healed femur to Kim Kardashian’s ring, this is a very engaging romp through feminist history.
The Patriarch’s by Angela Saini is a genre and myth- busting look at how and why men came to rule, deftly skewering any ideas that patriarchal rule is in anyway natural or inevitiable. A scrupulously researched and very readable masterwork.
A Life of One’s Own by Joanna Biggs unravels the lives of some of the most famous feminist writers. Mary Wollstonecraft, George Eliot, Zora Neale Hurston, Virginia Woolf, Simone de Beauvoir, Sylvia Plath, Toni Morrison, and Elena Ferrante are all taken down from their pedestals, their work and lives seen in a new light. Joanna wanted to learn more about the conditions these women needed to write their best work, and how they addressed the questions she herself was struggling with: Is domesticity a trap? Is life worth living if you have lost faith in the traditional goals of a woman? Why is it so important for women to read one another?
The book box is beautifully packaged, and comes with book marks, postcards and tea. The price also includes second class signed for postage.
