Zelda (Paperback, New ed)

Zelda D'Aprano, a working-class woman at the forefront of the Women's Liberation Movement in Australia, shows, in her autobiography, the same raw spirit she evidenced when chaining herself to the Commonwealth Building in Melbourne to protest unequal pay on 21 October 1969. Worker, mother, trade unionist and activist, her painful memories always remind us that the personal is political. Zelda is a moving, down-to-earth recounting of the past, an insightful criticism of the way our society is structured and a reclamation of the exuberance of the Women's Liberation Movement. This is a book with no airs. Instead, it gives sharp opinions without expounding grand theories. The life of a remarkable woman who often battled alone for what women today take for granted.
