Why read it?
1 author picked The Moon and the Virgin as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This non-fiction book helped to reshape my reading of historical and mythological women and to understand representation and the voice of the ‘other’. Hall explores the power and (ab)use of language and how feminine myths and symbols are important to be unveiled and celebrated.

From Karen's list on rediscover women’s power.
