Feminist Fables

There was once a man who thought he could do anything, even be a woman. So he acquired a baby, changed its diapers and fed the damn thing three times a night. He did all the housework, was deferential to men, and got worn out. But he had a brother, Jack Cleverfellow, who hired a wife, and got it all done.

Feminist Fables represents an ingenious reworking of fairytales. Greek and Sanskrit mythology, mixed with the author's original material and vivid imagination. This book is an indispensible feminist classic.
