Embracing diaries, interviews, art, literature, psychology and historical documents, this original and mesmerising book resoundingly overthrows conventional Western ideas of the separation of individual and universal, centering the domestic or ?feminine? and intimate world, and insisting on its significance in world events. It is a gloriously written, intellectually startling, yet moving self-portrait of a world wavering between self-destruction and survival.* This is a NEAR FINE UN-USED copy of the 1st./1st. with minimal shelf wear and very slight browning reducing it to VG++*. n.
