『그대 아직도 꿈꾸고 있는가』는 일찌감치, '호주제'라는 남녀 불평등한 악습을 따른 제도를 소재로 삼아 사회 공론화시킨 소설이다. 결혼에 한 번 실패한 차문경과 부인과 사별한 지 얼마 되지 않은 김혁주, 비슷한 시기에 홀로된 이들은 동창회에서 재회하고 곧바로 사랑에 빠진다. 문경은 부인과 사별한 지 얼마 지나지 않은 혁주를 생각해 3년이 지난 뒤 결혼을 하기로 한다. 그러나 문경이 의심해마지 않던 둘의 결혼은 혁주의 변심으로 깨지고, 문경은 미혼모라는 굴레와 아비 없는 아이, 가난한 삶만이 남았을 뿐이다. 그리고 7년 후, 혁주는 경제력과 화목한 가정을 이루고도 단 하나 가지지 못한 것, 아들을 차지하기 위해 다시 문경의 인생에 나타난다.

Ambika Kamath and Melina Packer reveal how scientists studying animal behavior have long projected human norms and values onto animals while seeking to understand them. When scientific studies conclude that these norms and values are natural in animals, it makes it easier to think of them as natural in humans too. And because scientists, historically and to this day, largely belong to elite, powerful segments of society, the norms and values embedded into animal behavior science match those of the already powerful.

Los apremios de la vida cotidiana te roban energía e intención. Dormir se ha convertido en un acto automático y rutinario: al final del día caes agotada en el lecho, sin darle relevancia. Nuestra cultura nos ha convencido de que compartir la cama es normal y deseable, como muestra de amor y cuidado hacia la pareja, los hijos y otras personas. Romper estos paradigmas y reclamar una noche para ti misma es una acción sublime para recuperar tu energía y tu poder, reencontrarte y volver a habitar tu cuerpo en consciencia absoluta, sin la invasión de vibraciones ajenas.

Women Change the World is a collection of world-changing women, from actresses, recording artists, and writers to business women and other high-profile female professionals, on women's unique contributions to society. Women Change the World will be released in conjunction with the California Women's Conference, which offers its attendees inspiration, resources, and connections to take the next steps in their businesses, personal development, or philanthropic endeavors. 2012's conference speakers included Marcia Cross, Donna Karen, Gloria Allred, and many others.

We exist within a culture that encourages us—often with a frantic urgency—to try, and try harder. We are told to try a different approach, try to do or be better, try to squeeze in a little bit more. This is especially true of women, who not only have to try harder than men to receive access to the same opportunities and resources, but who are also conditioned to try in the name of meeting others' needs and expectations, often at the expense of their own well-being. In this book, Kate tackles hustle culture head-on, exploring the ways in which women are primed to become relentless strivers.

In 2020, Emma Holten read an article stating that women were a net ‘deficit’ to society. Women apparently took more than they gave: they took more parental leave, frequently worked part-time, and typically worked lower paying jobs in the public sector. How did we get here? How are the contributions of half the population seen as a loss? In Deficit, Emma Holten traces how economic thinkers – from the Enlightenment onwards – created a value framework that left out ‘women’s work’ and acts of care.

Pleasure should be a simple thing, but straight women are at the statistical bottom of the pile when it comes to finding a happy ending. There's a name for this phenomenon: it's called the pleasure gap. And when tracked against other gains in women's freedom, like pay or education, it is still alarmingly wide. All Women Want is about that gap, the methods women use to try to solve it (spoiler: they don't always want to do it solo), and why physical pleasure might be a final frontier for gender equality.

In Bach, Beethoven and the Grrrls, the author turns his engaging and educating gaze on an area of classical music that has sadly been too long neglected – that of some of the great women composers. In briefly chronicling their lives, David maintains a light tone while striving to remain respectful of the women themselves, yet properly irreverent – at times even perhaps disdainful – of the societal and other forces that for far too long have kept these creative artists in the shadows of others.

It’s a safe bet that most of the secretaries on the TV series Mad Men would have attended the Katharine Gibbs School in New York City. The iconic institution was in its heyday in the 1950 and '60s synonymous with supplying secretaries—always properly attired in heels, ladylike hats, and white gloves—to male executives. In Expect Great Things! Vanda Krefft turns the notion of a “Gibbs girl” on its head, showing us that while the school was getting women who could type 90 words per minute into the C-suite, its more subversive mission was to get them out of the secretarial pool.

In the U.S., many of the most significant social justice victories of our time have been spearheaded by women of color leaders. From the streets, to the ballot box, to elected office, no other demographic group stands up more consistently and unequivocally for human rights, democracy, and the planet. Remarkably, they’ve accomplished this despite conditions—in their fields and organizations—that make leadership uniquely treacherous for them. For women of color leaders, the game is rigged. How much more could humanity be winning if we unrigged it?

On March 22, 2023, the Swedish Academy organized a conference on threats to democracy and freedom of expression featuring a slate of distinguished speakers including Arundhati Roy, Timothy Snyder, and Sofi Oksanen. Oksanen’s address—entitled “Putin's War on Women”— would go on to spark such interest that the acclaimed Finnish writer felt compelled to return to it as the basis for a larger, more in-depth look at Putin’s threat to women. The result is Same River, Twice, a devastating book-length essay that incisively builds on the themes and arguments first presented in her powerful speech.

Since her death, Sylvia Plath (1932–1963) has become an endless source of fascination for a wide audience ranging from readers of The Bell Jar, her semiautobiographical novel, to her groundbreaking poetry as exemplified by Ariel. Beyond her writing, however, interest in Plath has also been fueled in part by the tragic nature of her death. As a result, a steady stream of biographies of Plath have appeared over the last fifty-five years that mainly focus on her death or contain projections of an array of points of view about the writer.

Indigenous communities have been organizing against violence since newcomers first arrived, but the cases of missing and murdered women have only recently garnered broad public attention. Violence Against Indigenous Women joins the conversation by analyzing the socially interventionist work of Indigenous women poets, playwrights, filmmakers, and fiction writers.

In recent years, "white feminism" and girlboss feminism have taken a justified beating. We know that leaning in won't make our jobs any more tolerable and that white women have proven to be, at best, unreliable allies. But in a time of rising fascism, ceaseless attacks on reproductive justice, and violent transphobia, we need to reckon with what Western feminism has wrought if we have any hope of building the feminist world we need.

Four months postpartum with her second child, Catherine Simone Gray is back at her doctor’s office, surveying a childbirth wound that refuses to mend. Proud flesh: tissue that overheals to become its own wound. Pregnancy and motherhood had been physically vulnerable for Gray, but this renders her most intimate parts unrecognizable—like her body is no longer her own. Has it ever been her own? As she gets to know her body in its new form, she encounters, too, the girl she’d been at seventeen.

Que tal ler mais mulheres? A provocação da escritora inglesa Joanna Walsh inspirou Juliana Gomes a criar, com as amigas Juliana Leuenroth e Michelle Henriques, o Leia Mulheres em São Paulo. Mediadoras que assumiram para si a missão de promover clubes em suas cidades também escrevem. O texto passa pelo humor, pela tragédia, pela melancolia, pelo afrofuturismo, pelo suspense, pelo terror. As vozes das mulheres são múltiplas, com diversidade de origens e temas. E vêm com a potência de quem tem muito a dizer.
