Women's Revolution Deferred?

Fabulous book written by a fabulous woman who was more than the sum of her...well...parts. Although written in the early seventies Dworkin takes a very interesting, humorous, blunt, critical, approach to the misogyny which is typical of all nations and analyzes it thoroughly through various examples of psychological as well as physical brutality against women from Chinese foot-binding to the notorious "witch burnings". Great read, kept me laughing at various points throughout. Kept in mind that this was written during the heat of the women's revolution , and thus had a repetitive revolutionary tone-but nonetheless all said with good intentions in-spite of how male readers will obviously respond to the point she is trying to read. Vedy Vedy cool writing style though which makes it easily for any open minded reader to swallow.
