A woman's life is different. This is clear when a stranger's catcall makes her feel targeted in the street. When politicians make off-the-cuff sexist remarks. When media commentators wade in with their condemnation of free, unrestricted abortion. When a father is praised to the skies for attending parents' evening while the mother's attendance is taken for granted. When they fire her because she's pregnant. When they dismiss her medical symptoms as anxiety. To counter sexism today, we need to learn the art of self-defence. Today, feminism is more alive and more necessary than ever because discrimination against women has become more subtle and difficult to detect, yet it retains its paralysing power. With combative energy and acerbic wit, Bel Olid explains the key concepts of the current feminist struggle in a smart, radical and often counterintuitive way.

En palabras de George Orwell, Rebelión en la granja es la historia de una revolución que sale mal. La corrupción, el abuso de poder, la manipulación de la verdad y el culto al líder acaban con los sueños de libertad, igualdad y justicia de los habitantes de la Granja de los Animales. Hasta los ideales más nobles pueden pervertirse y degenerar en una parodia de aquello contra lo que se luchaba.Con esta sátira feroz de todos los totalitarismos, Orwell nos regala una apasionada reivindicación de la libertad que se ha convertido por méritos propios en uno de los grandes clásicos de la literatura del siglo xx.
