Book Review: A Handbook For Budding Feminists
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is an ideal gift for any young person, but particularly for girls entering puberty. It is a guide to gaining and keeping control of one's goals and self-respect. The topics covered include a right to privacy, a good education and a modest income sufficient to allow for independence and nurture creativity. The author's voice is that of a friend or mentor, never heavy-handed or pompous, but wise and straightforward. Woolf never talks down to you, the reader; her writing is elegant and she assumes you care to be a woman of substance, not a drone.
