{"product_id":"1540135","title":"Our Treacherous Hearts: Why Women Let Men Get Their Way","description":"206 pp. Women will remain exploited until they stop denying the bitter truth of their \"inferior\" positions and stop complying with their male exploiters, insists Coward, a British broadcaster, in this penetrating and wide-ranging analysis-cum-manifesto. She searches for the female feelings that, she believes, often go unacknowledged: the tendency to idealize men, to be manipulative, to play the victim, to enjoy the attention conferred by pregnancy and motherhood, and to collude in the notion that a woman is only as good as her own well-toned body. And though the people she interviews are British, Coward, clearly, is not speaking only about her country; in fact, she includes cogent opinions from feminist writers on both sides of the Atlantic. And her case that women are, in some respects, worse off now than before--languishing in guilt and servitude to children, doing double duty at home and work--is persuasive. Coward's points are, in general, well taken.\r\n","brand":"Faber and Faber","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":12594929205318,"sku":"1540135","price":2.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/ym-demo.myshopify.com\/products\/1540135","provider":"Yesterday's Muse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
