![]() ![]() ![]() Woman Hating was the perfect book for a young woman to read immediately before setting off into the world from college. Though I had read Millett, Freidan, de Beauvoir, Solanas, Morgan, Brownmiller, and many others during the early seventies, the force of Dworkin's arguments reached me in a way that theirs didn't, perhaps because it was not written in an academic way, nor did it rely upon the reader recognizing herself as a housewife, mother, or middle aged. She tied together history and culture to expose patriarchy as a negative anti-life power dedicated to its own perpetuation. In particular, Dworkin's description of global woman hating cultural practices such as foot binding and witch hunting made a vivid impression upon me. At the age of 22, decades ago, I read this book, and was amazed. ![]() ![]() ![]() Since the first book was rehashed so much I assume the full story will be revealed in the last book. I would like to fully understand WHY the Laird is kidnapping the Cynster sisters. Will I read the last book in the series? Probably yes if I can get it for a good price. He didn't do too bad, but I still felt he was not the narrator for this book. He has a wonderful voice, but I found myself wondering how he would pull off the love scene when we FINALLY got to one. I think this narrator was not the best choice for this book. And while I usually rate the narrators very well simply because I love listening to them. I didn't read the first book in the series and I'm glad I didn't because the entire story was told in this story. I only paid $14.95 for this, but wish I'd gotten it in one of the $4.99 sales.
