If you are a woman and haven't read it, please check it out! It really drives home how far we have come as a society in our attitudes towards women, but still need to keep moving ahead. Elizabeth Zott is a female chemist in a male-dominated 1950's world. No one takes her work seriously until she meets Calvin Evans, a brilliant fellow chemist at her workplace. There is an instant attraction -- a chemistry --between them, and they soon become a couple. But their co-habitation is frowned upon, and all their colleagues are jealous of their success and happiness. Garmus has written an eye-opening chronicle of the times and the battles faced by women, especially stay- at- home moms, or "housewives", as they used to be called. Elizabeth Zott is a real trail blazing heroine, don't miss out on her story! | | | | You can also reply to this email to leave a comment. | | | | |
