This would be a good read for any feminist book club. It's well-written so the pages turn quickly, but it's a tough read because it's hard to see women treated consistently like second class citizens, only here to serve their husbands and sons. I appreciated that it was set in modern day (the 90s and the 21st century) Brooklyn because I naively thought of the issues addressed in this book as belonging to a different time or a different place.
