This book draws attention to the controversy that surrounds Betty
Friedan, Germaine Greer, Gloria Steinem, and Simone de Beauvoir's
lives and the important role that their life stories have played in
their feminist writing. Directly and indirectly, the four women
have contributed to battles over feminism's meaning through
autobiographically informed political writing. Inevitably,
therefore, their biographers are also participants in these
battles, yet not always on the same side as their subjects. Writing
Feminist Lives introduces a further fold of nuance into
considerations of biography and feminism by showing that the
biographers of the four women have made methodological choices that
reflect their loyalty to, or their scepticism towards, competing
ideological definitions of the exemplary feminist life.
