Pick one for now then work through the list
Would love to read The Second Sex, we talk about the book so much in my English class and my teacher always tells us to refer to it, I have a my gcse soon and I always mention the book in my feminist essays! x
Sounds like a great list! If I had to pick one I think it would be Writing an Woman's Life, followed by The Second Sex and then Headstrong.
Very happy to see a book on asexuality included in this poll! <3 As someone who identifies as a grey ace, this is refreshing!
Dorothea Lange - An American Exodus: A Record of Human Erosion.... saw a bio of photographer Dorothea Lange. This book details some of her work & this is just a bucket list book for me - on Amazon the hardcover is selling for $759 :("....First published in 1939, An American Exodus is one of the masterpieces of the documentary genre. Produced by incomparable documentary photographer Dorothea Lange with text by her husband, Paul Taylor, An American Exodus was taken in the early 1930s while the couple were working for the Farm Security Administration (FSA) The book documents the rural poverty of the depression-era exodus that brought over 300,000 migrants to California in search of farm work, a westward mass migration driven by economic deprivation as opposed to the Manifest Destiny of 19th century pioneers. ......"
Hoping to get the schedule figured out in the next 24 hours....
