Description
The Penguin Book of Feminist Writing brings together a diverse collection of writings from across time and the world, showcasing the breadth and depth of feminist thought. From the 15th century to the present day, this anthology celebrates the voices of women who have challenged sexism and oppression, and explored the intersections of class, capitalism, colonialism, and other forms of inequality.
Within its pages, readers will find incisive and provocative selections from pioneering thinkers such as Mary Wollstonecraft, Virginia Woolf, and Susan Sontag, alongside lesser-known writers like Juana Ines de la Cruz and Fadwa Tuqan. This carefully curated collection is the result of years of research and reading, and offers a rich and considered introduction to feminist thought, as well as a wealth of new discoveries to be made.
