First Published in 1995. Refusing to be a 'Wife'! explores how women can transform their relationships in order to minimize the inequality found in traditional families. Drawing on interviews with women and men in explicitly anti-sexist living arrangements, the book provides a new perspective on the division of domestic labour, mothering, marriage and financial allocation in the home. Written in a clear and engaging style, this book will be of interest and relevance not only to feminists but to anyone interested in the 'potential' impact of feminism on family life.
Jo Van Every received her PhD from the University of Essex, and currently teaches in the Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology at Keele University. Her research interests include feminist theory and politics, alternate living arrangements and women and sexualities.
