"Letters to a Young Feminist is a warm, political, irresistible guide for young feminists, women and men." Gloria Steinem "A frank assessment of the past and radical recipe for the future." Chicago Tribune "Chesler's is a strong but nuanced position: in considering patriarchy, she consistently points out that even successful women seldom have access to real sources of power, but she readily admits that support from women strengthens patriarchy, and that women (including feminist women) can be as cruel to their sisters as any man. A provocative message from one generation to another." Booklist "Chesler does an admirable job. She writes poignantly." New York Times
