To Hell with All That: The Housewife Reconsidered by Flanagan, Caitlin
First Edition
Boston, MA: Little, Brown and Company, 2006. First Edition. Soft Bound. Near Fine/No Jacket. This is an uncorrected proof. The original title was To Hell With All That, Loving and Loathing Our Inner Housewife. Written by Caitlin Flanagan, the hilarious and provocative social critic, compares the rituals and experiences that shaped the fifties housewife with those that have forged the modern woman and arrives at some surprising conclusions. In her signature prose - brightly funny and brutally honest - Flanagan examines everything from the white-wedding craze to the epidemic of undersexed marriages. Whether she is reporting on the mommy wars, the anticlutter movement, or America's new nanny culture, her book reveals both the high cost women pay for devoting themselves to the people they love and also the matchless rewards that come from such a sacrifice. 196 pages, the top back cover has a small chipped area. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
