pickI underlined hundreds of parts because 1963-2025 hasn't solved gender equality progress. There are several sections that talk about how woman lose themselves to drink or food when all the household work is done and the kids are at school and they are restless in not knowing what to do since they left school to become wives & mothers. How technology would fit into these narratives. would they make it worse, or offer more opportunities?
Braved the cold in Memphis today to check out South Main Book Juggler and I‘m glad I did. I found a copy of the tagged book and the owner was kind enough to recommend The Book Club for Troublesome Women to me. She shared with me that she‘s currently reading the books in tandem and I thought that sounded like a wonderful idea myself.
