After two books by #EvaIllouz on #capitalism and #emotion, this one by #Hochschild seems like an almost logical step in my new reading adventures! I remember reading « The #secondshift », which she published in the 1980's and it is one of the college assignments that particularly influenced my views on #feminism, especially the issue of housechores sharing (or rather lack thereof) among couples and how this socio-cultural phenomenon has been hampering efforts to reach socio-economic equality between men and women. It seems to me that the #managedheart is located at the crossroad between the aforementioned works. I'll see how it turns out and I already look forward to it.
