Features: This book is another masterpiece by Jeanette Winterson, following her renowned feminist classic The Passion. It has been called a "controversial bombshell" and is considered a sister work to the former. The book examines women—primarily Western women—from multiple angles and layers, analyzing the oppression, humiliation, and emasculation they suffer in a male-dominated society. It calls for the establishment of a complete and healthy female identity. At the same time, it provides a brilliant deconstruction of the physiology and psychology of men in a male-dominated society. Winterson's writing is sharp and incisive, with thoughts that are highly penetrating and often bring forward insights others have not considered. Her wit is brilliant yet startling, offering Chinese readers an alternative voice from contemporary Western women.
