The Female Man Kindle Edition

by Joanna Russ (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
3.7 out of 5 stars (347)
Four alternate selves from radically different realities come together in this "dazzling" and "trailblazing work" (The Washington Post).
 
Widely acknowledged as Joanna Russ's masterpiece, The Female Man is the suspenseful, surprising, darkly witty, and boldly subversive chronicle of what happens when Jeannine, Janet, Joanna, and Jael—all living in parallel worlds—meet. Librarian Jeannine is waiting for marriage in a past where the Depression never ended, Janet lives on a utopian Earth with an all-female population, Joanna is a feminist in the 1970s, and Jael is a warrior with claws and teeth on an Earth where male and female societies are at war with each other. When the four women begin traveling to one another's worlds, their preconceptions on gender and identity are forever challenged.
 
With "palpable anger . . . leavened by wit and humor" (The New York Times), Russ both employs and upends genre conventions to deliver a wickedly satiric and exhilarating version of when worlds collide and women get woke.
 
This ebook includes the Nebula Award–winning bonus short story "When It Changed," set in the world of The Female Man.
