Reviews

[Lise · Rating 3 out of 5]

Quelques réflexions pertinentes parfois, amusantes souvent sur différents sujets tels que les femmes, le choix d'une maitresse ou la jalousie. Si certains chapitres reflètent une vision peu moderne de la femme, d'autres restent tout à fait d'actualité. Féministes radicales s'abstenir.
