The Female Eunuch by Germaine Greer
Available alongside five other Modern Classics first published by Flamingo in the 1970s, this is a re-issue of Germaine's Greer's feminist classic. Translated into many languages, "The Female Eunuch" is a landmark in the history of the women's movement. Drawing liberally from history, literature and popular culture, past and present, Germaine Greer's searing examination of women's oppression is at once an important social commentary and a passionately argued piece of polemic.
'A dazzling combination of erudition, eccentricity and eroticism' Newsweek 'The best feminist book so far.. A book with personality, a book that knows the distinction between the self and the other, a book that combines the best of masculinity and femininity.' New York Times 'Germaine Greer in The Female Eunuch converted me to Women's Lib, as much by her bawdy sense of humour as by the bite of her polemic.' Kenneth Tynan, Observer 'Intelligent, funny and beautifully written' Vogue
