Who Cooked the Last Supper?: The Women's History of the World by Rosalind Miles

3.0

Meh. I don’t know who the best audience for this book would be. If you already accept the premise that women played a vital and equal role in human history, the book reads like a list of interesting facts about various women in history. If you don’t accept that premise, you won’t pick it up in the first place anyways. As others have noted, while the book attempts to be intersectional as it relates to race and gender, it is heavily Eurocentric and Western-centric, and even less concerned with other identities such as sexuality or ability.

CWs: many potentially needed. Brief but graphic descriptions of violence, rape, and torture throughout.
