I am amazed at the nuggets of wisdom offered in this book about what it means to be a woman. The book was written over 50 years ago but the author addresses issues women are facing in 2025 as if she were here with us . Clearly and lucidly she offers refreshing insights on the roles of women which are unique to women. Her courageous voice is a welcome relief from the clamour of dissenting voices and opinions that daily assaulting us in our hyped-up, information saturated, technology driven age!
