A collection of short stories, set among the disappeared and darkened sectors of New York City, about characters who fall prey to an increasingly bureaucratized poverty.
Shulamith Firestone è stata una figura centrale nel primo sviluppo del femminismo radicale. Come membro fondatore di influenti gruppi femministi, è stata determinante nel plasmare la direzione del movimento. La sua opera fondamentale esplorò la necessità di una rivoluzione femminista, analizzando i profondi legami tra disuguaglianza di genere e strutture sociali.
