Rodham: Feminism Without Politics


Listen Later

We continue our discussion of Rodham by Curtis Sittenfeld by examining its political point of view (or lack thereof). Despite taking on one of the most famous politicians in the world as its subject, Rodham feels pretty light on political intent. Is it meant to be a cathartic thought experiment for frustrated Democrats, a book for feminists without political opinions, or something else entirely?
For this series we will review and discuss Lincoln in the Bardo by George Saunders Oct 21 - Nov 4, Rodham by Curtis Sittenfeld Nov 11 - Dec 2, and Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro Dec 9 - Dec 23.
