pickA horrific and comically satiric indictment on conservative attacks on women's liberation, this novella, written in 1972, shows how astounding the “tradwife“ idea still is today--when a woman is on the cusp of (hopefully) becoming our first female president. As much as some want to return to the 1950s and put females back in the kitchen, Levin shows how truly tragic that return would be for us women. Indeed, “we will not go back!“ #election24
IndoorDame I was so young when I read this I‘m not sure it sunk in how relevant it still was to my generation, I‘m almost scared to pick it up again now that we‘re at such a terrifying moment politically 2mo
SamAnne @IndoorDame feel the same way! 2mo
dabbe @IndoorDame @SamAnne I felt emboldened after I read it, and the idea of \“not going back\“ really resonated with me. I read it more as a warning--done in a horrifically funny way as only Levin can do. 1mo
