Aus dem Klappentext

de la Femme is a thoughtful compilation that unites the sharp writing of Gloria Steinem with the wry musings of Erma Bombeck. Here is Joan Rivers mocking institutions, Merrill Markoe educating, and many more women teaching, learning, growing, loving, leaving--in a let's-not-take-ourselves-too-seriously way.

Arranged thematically into topics like politics, equal rights, relationships, men, family, aging, you'll find humor ranging from the ironic to the sublime. In addition, all this funny business is for a good cause--all royalties and a percentage of the proceeds will be donated to The American Foundation for AIDS Research (AmFAR), the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, and the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.

They Just Don't Get It--

I wish I had a quarter every time my parents said, "Edith, you are being childish." Excuse me, but shouldn't a kid my age have the right to be childish? It's one of the few perks we have left. Not that I blame them for wanting us kids to act more like grown-ups. I wish my parents would act more like grown-ups, too. But it just does not seem to work. Acting childish seems to come naturally, but acting like an adult, no matter how old we are, just doesn't come easy to us.

--Jane Wagner
