The Beauty Myth (Vintage Feminism Short Edition)
SYNOPSIS
WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION BY THE AUTHOR
Every day, women around the world are confronted with a dilemma – how to look. In a society embroiled in a cult of female beauty and youthfulness, pressure on women to conform physically is constant and all-pervading. In this shortened edition you will find the essence of Wolf’s groundbreaking book. It is a radical, gripping and frank exposé of the tyranny of the beauty myth, its oppressive function and the destructive obsession it engenders.

REVIEWS
Revelador
Sara Oliveira
A leitura deste livro deu-me uma perspetiva diferente sobre a luta feminista. É um livro rápido de se ler e que transforma a nossa forma de abordar certas áreas da nossa vida.
Uma outra perspetiva feminista
Sofia Nogueira
Muito interessante, pois mostra todo um lado que não se fala tanto relativamente ao tema do feminismo. Muito educativo e, visto ser o resumo da obra original, foca os pontos essenciais e lê-se rapidamente (li apenas num dia). Recomendo!
