A review by devind9bde
Mercy by Andrea Dworkin

5.0

Dworkin is often caricatured as a ‘bad feminist' who 'hates men'. From what I can see in this book, she hates what men did to her, and she wants justice. The MeToo movement is a direct descendant of her work, although she has been pushed into obscurity. This is worth a read for sure, to see her points made up close and personal. There are valuable insights here for feminists today. As another reviewer says, I wish this book made men care.

Furthermore, from a literary perspective this book is very good, and deserves to be read on it's literary merit alone, but I suspect the subject matter and the author hold many people back.
