Wolf, Naomi:  Fire with Fire
Book Number: 24940
London Chatto and Windus 4 November, 1993 8vo softcover 256pp very good. This work calls for a new kind of feminism and new female attitudes to power. The author argues that the feminist movement has to change if it is to speak to a new generation of women. There is a widening gap between much feminist rhetoric and most women's lives. Even as women are gaining more ground than ever before, a wariness of feminist orthodoxies keeps them away from the only movement capable of putting political clout behind their personal success. "Fire with Fire" aims to provide a blueprint for a revitalized, inclusive brand of feminism. And it is a call to women themselves to throw off centuries of conditioning about the relationship between power and femininity: they must be prepared to wrest power and use it.
