{"product_id":"the-madwomans-underclothes-essays-and-occasional-writings-9780871133083","title":"The Madwoman's Underclothes: Essays and Occasional Writings","description":"Always strong and fearless, Germaine Greer strikes right at the heart of the matter--be it John F. Kennedy and vaginal deodorants, rape and artificial insemination, cosmetic surgery, the death of Jimi Hendrix, or the famine in Ethiopia. This collection represents a mosaic of essays, long and short, some of which are appearing for the first time in print and all of which chafe the conventional and are bristling with argument. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrom the youthful liveliness of her sixties pieces, which \"got up everybody's nose,\" to the depth and complexity of her later work, The Madwoman's Underclothes is a reflection both of an era and of the changing ideas and styles of Germaine Greer: \"The essays on Brazil, Cuba, and Ethiopia represent my coming of age. Something like a coherent system of values is beginning to emerge after my years of wandering, although I have certainly not arrived at a set of articles of faith, and never will, I hope.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGreer's opinions on social, political, and sexual trends and mores are tendered in her unique fashion--outspoken, with rapier wit and no tolerance for narrow-mindedness. But as explosive, angry, and often funny as these essays are, they also reveal tenderness and sadness and that emotion that underlies all of Greer's work--passionate commitment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Germaine Greer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atlantic Monthly Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/10\/1994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.98h x 6.02w x 0.93d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780871133083\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Monthly Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40226860957811,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":16.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_7ea1a446-aaf4-4e60-8932-6857a7a2a853.jpg?v=1656768493","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/the-madwomans-underclothes-essays-and-occasional-writings-9780871133083","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
