A review by annagiuliatonetto
Three Women by Lisa Taddeo
2.0
There are two quotes I believe best portray the overall message of this book :
"She is without a father. When girls are without fathers, they look under every manhole cover."
and
"Even when women are being heard, it is often only the right types of women
who are actively heard. White ones. Rich ones. Pretty ones. Young ones. Best to
be all those things at once."
I do not wish belittle these women's experiences, as they are entitled to their feelings and their own narratives, however I d think that this book was a little reductive.
