The Female Eunuch

The 50th Anniversary edition of the ground-breaking, worldwide bestselling feminist tract.

‘The Female Eunuch retains that power of transformation; it asserts the possibility of creativity within female experience’ Guardian

A worldwide bestseller, translated into over twelve languages, The Female Eunuch is a landmark in the history of the women’s movement.

Drawing liberally from history, literature and popular culture, past and present, Germaine Greer’s searing examination of women’s oppression is at once an important social commentary and a passionately argued masterpiece of polemic.

Probably the most famous, most widely read book on feminism ever.

• Published to coincide with the 50th anniversary of The Female Eunuch’s first publication.

• With an introduction by Hadley Freeman

• Germaine Greer remains a highly visible literary and cultural commentator. A second wave feminist fire brand, her comments always receive strong reactions.

• In the wake of criticisms from modern feminists, the legacy of The Female Eunuch should be fiercely debated in the press.
