You Can't Keep a Good Woman Down (A Women's Press classic)

You Can't Keep a Good Woman Down (A Women's Press classic)

by Alice Walker (Author)

Synopsis

In this splendid volume we encounter a whole range of characters: the guru who preaches that 'nobody's anything'; the rich white lawyer who wants a teenage sex slave; the old comrade in anti-sexist struggle who reveals that the feminist she most admires is Scarlett O'Hara; the expert lover whose virtuosity depends on the stimulation of pornography; and the 'Emperor of Rock and Roll' whose failure to understand the songs he sings - the songs of a black woman - haunt his gold-plated but empty life.
