Life of One''s Own

Zusatztext "Unlike Woolf [in her book A Room of One's Own]! Milner doesn't just tell you it would be nice to have one (of your own)! or that women deserve one (of their own); it shows you! step by step! and in lovingly private detail! how to go about getting one-all by yourself! and without any need for special training or material resources-and what it might feel like to have one! moment by moment. It is an irresistible invitation." - Rachel Bowlby! from the new introduction.
