The pioneering feminist discusses her new novel.
Marilyn French is regarded as one of the greatest living feminist writers. Her controversial and provocative first novel The Women's Room, published in 1977, sold 20 million copies worldwide and quickly became a classic of the women's movement. Almost 30 years later her latest novel, In The Name of Friendship, explores the new realities behind women's lives today.
How far have women's lives changed since The Women's Room was published? What does she think about the state of the women's movement at the start of the 21st century? And are the challenges facing women still the same? Jenni Murray will be discussing these issues with Marilyn French.
In The Name of Friendship by Marilyn French, published by The Feminist Press, ISBN 1-55861-521-0 |
