Mycket intressant. Många referenser till antik/grekisk litteratur, som syftar på krocken mellan förgrekisk gudinneålder och den följadne manliga Krigareran. Samt historiens utveckling.

Elin Wägner var mycket klarsynt i sin civilisationskritik inklusive det hon berör om status, konsumtion, pacifism, miljö och patriarkatet. Dock, innehållet är synnerligen svulstigt förpackat.
