Starr, Tama Eve's Revenge: Saints, Sinners, and Stand-Up Sisters on the Ultimate Extinction of Men
Harcourt 1994 0151000840 / 9780151000845 First Edition Hard Cover Fine Near-Fine
Stated First Edition - Price inside dustcover: $19.95 - NO price clippings or remainder marks -Men are beasts, authorities throughout the ages have agreed. Here, scholars of male behavior from St. Catherine of Siena ("Let not thy misfortune be such as to enter into any private conversation, with monk or layman") to Zsa Zsa Gabor ("A man is incomplete until he is married. Then he is finished."), from Mae West ("Give a man a free hand and he'll run it all over you") to Andrea Dworkin ("Intercourse is the pure, sterile, formal expression of men's contempt for women"), offer suggestions on what to do about, with, and without men. In this magnificent compendium of wise and unwise words and warnings from "the fair sex" about the opposite sex, Tama Starr offers a tantalizing companion to her collection of infuriating comments by men about women, The "Natural Inferiority" of Women (1991). Eve's Revenge is both a valuable source of ammunition in the ongoing battle between the sexes and a keenly hilarious parody of those who long for the day when, the battle won, "men" (a socially constructed phenomenon anyway) will be fully under the control of the wiser, more compassionate, more virtuous - that is, feminine - beings destined to succeed them on the ladder of evolution.

Starr, Tama (compiled by) The Natural Inferiority of Women: Outrageous Pronouncements by Misguided Males
Poseidon Press 1991 0671744313 / 9780671744311 Hard Cover Fine Near-Fine
Near-new condition. NO remainder marks. Inside-top-front dustcover flap has been clipped. NO writing, marks or tears inside book. Tight spine, clean pages. 239 pages. Illustrated throughout. From Library Journal: Most quotation books about women, such as Elaine Partnow's Quotable Woman: 1800-1981 ( LJ 6/1/83), her Quotable Woman: Eve to 1799 ( LJ 12/84) or Running Press's The Quotable Woman ( LJ 6/1/91), contain quotes by women. Starr, a lecturer and teacher at the Esalen Institute in California, has compiled an eclectic collection of quotations by males about the "inferior" female. Quotations from various cultures date from 3000 B.C. to the present and are arranged by chapters such as "Her Lesser Biology," "Evil Is Woman," and "Woman's Contemptible Weakness." The quotations reflect the widespread philosophy of woman as the inferior sex through multicultural proverbs, religious texts, and writings of various authors. The book is disturbing, provocative, and at times humorous. Entertaining, historical illustrations complement the text. A necessary purchase for women's studies collections. --Eva Lautemann, Dekalb College Lib. , Clarkston, Ga. Copyright 1991 Reed Business Information, Inc.
