Why read it?
1 author picked Little Sister as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I loved this book because it challenged ideas about relationships and motherhood.
For me, the issues around guilt and feelings of self-worth came through strongly. I loved this book because the writing was lyrical and clear, and made me suspend my disbelief to the point where I totally believed the premise that one could inhabit another’s body—and made me wonder if the burden of guilt can actually cause such dire consequences.
From Susan's list on flip the script on women’s sexuality, pleasure, and cultural roles.
