Dear Ijeawele, or a Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions

內容簡介

內容簡介 Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie以We Should All Be Feminists、Americanah兩本書讓世界讀者對她留下深刻印象，這次以寫信的方式，再次為女權運動提出有力的證言。幾年前Adichie收到了一封好友的來信，信中詢問「要如何將女兒養育成女性主義者」，這本書就是Adichie的回覆，其中這十五個建議不僅回覆好友的疑問，也獻給所有有同樣困擾的家長們。這些建議包括：在選擇玩具時，告訴女兒娃娃不是唯一選項，她也可以勇敢選擇直升機；以開放的態度和女兒討論衣服、化妝、性別認知等話題；告訴她女性待在家裡煮飯不是女性唯一的角色，出外工作也不需要獲得丈夫同意……等。本書出版後再度讓Adichie的主張受到注目，沒有意外地登上紐約時報暢銷榜，也獲得各大媒體的盛讚，她給好友的回覆讓所有人都正視，在二十一世紀身為一個女人該有的樣子。A powerful statement about feminism today from “one of the world’s great contemporary writers” (Barack Obama), the author of Americanah and We Should All Be Feminists.A few years ago, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie received a letter from a childhood friend, a new mother who wanted to know how to raise her baby girl to be a feminist. Dear Ijeawele is Adichie’s letter of response: fifteen invaluable suggestions—direct, wryly funny, and perceptive—for how to empower a daughter to become a strong, independent woman. Filled with compassionate guidance and advice, it gets right to the heart of sexual politics in the twenty-first century, and starts a new and urgently needed conversation about what it really means to be a woman today.A New York Times Best Seller ● A Skimm Reads Pick ● An NPR Best Book of the Year
