Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

This 20th-anniversary edition of the extraordinary New York Times bestseller features a new introduction from the author! "Stiffed is a brilliant, important book. Faludi's reportorial and literary skills unfold with breathtaking confidence and beauty. She goes a long way toward eliminating the black and white, good and evil, male and female polarities that have riven the sexes in the past three decades." -Time In 1991, internationally renowned feminist journalist Susan Faludi ignited a revival of the women's movement with her revelatory investigative reportage: Backlash was nothing less than a landmark, uncovering an "undeclared war" against women's equality in the media, advertising, Hollywood, the workplace, and government--a war that is still being fought today.

Read in the light of Trumpian politics and the #MeToo movement, Faludi's analysis speaks acutely to our present crisis, and to a foreboding future. Stiffed delivers a searing portrait of modern-day male America, and traces the provenance of a gender war that continues to rage, unabated.…
