How does a very small girl hide a very large lion? It's not easy, but Iris has to do her best, because mums and dads can be funny about having a lion in the house. Luckily, there are lots of good places to hide a lion - behind the shower curtain, in your bed, and even up a tree. A funny, heart-warming story about a very special friendship.
In medieval England, man was the ruler of woman, and the King was the ruler of all. How, then, could royal power lie in female hands? In She-Wolves, celebrated historian, Helen Castor, tells the dramatic and fascinating stories of four exceptional women who, while never reigning queens, held great power: Matilda, Eleanor of Aquitaine, Isabella of France and Margaret of Anjou. These were women who paved the way for Jane Grey, Mary Tudor and Elizabeth I - the Tudor queens who finally confronted what it meant to be a female monarch.
Margaret of Anjou is the most notorious of English medieval queens. In a man's world, how did she exercise power? By considering the constraints imposed upon Margaret's involvement in political activity by virtue of being a woman, this book sheds light on the convoluted politics of 15th century England.
Uno dei libri più venduti nel mondo, caratterizzato da una vena di pazzia e di tristezza, Il mondo secondo Garp è una splendida rassegna di atteggiamenti incongrui e imprevedibili verso il sesso, il matrimonio, la famiglia e il femminismo. Una donna "sessualmente sospetta", la madre di Garp, diviene bersaglio di un pazzo che odia le donne e che la ucciderà; Garp, a sua volta, diviene bersaglio delle femministe radicali e sarà vittima di una pazza che odia gli uomini. Un libro ironico e insieme drammatico che rivela le contraddizioni dell'America di fronte alle problematiche della liberazione sessuale. Un capolavoro personale, una chiara dimostrazione del credo morale ed estetico di Irving.

A groundbreaking history of mothers who worked for pay that will change the way we think about gender, work and equality in modern Britain. In Britain today, three-quarters of mothers are in employment and paid work is an unremarkable feature of women's lives after childbirth. Yet a century ago, working mothers were in the minority, excluded altogether from many occupations, whilst their wage-earning was widely perceived as a social ill. In Double Lives, Helen McCarthy accounts for this remarkable transformation, whose consequences have been momentous for Britain's society and economy. Drawing upon a wealth of sources, McCarthy ranges from the smoking chimney-stacks of nineteenth-century Man...
