The love children - Marilyn French

French's 1977 novel The Women's Room epitomised the feminist movement and has become one of the most influential books of the modern age. Here she captures the complexities of life for the daughters of The Women's Room generation in her highly anticipated new novel. It is the 1960s. Jess Leighton, daughter of proto-feminist Harvard professor, is struggling to make sense of her world amid racial tensions and anti-governmental rage. With more options than her mother, but no role-model for the life she desires, she searches for happiness on her own terms.
