Description

Original by Aristophanes Adapted by Germaine Greer With additional dialogue from Phil Willmott. Aristophanes' classic play retold in a bang up to the minute way. The world's leading feminist raconteur, polemicist and wit plunders the archetypal story of female resistance... This new version of the ancient tale gives the battle of the sexes an outing full of fun, farce and innuendo.

About the Author
GERMAINE GREER Germaine Greer was born in 1939 in Melbourne, Australia. After a convent education, she graduated from Melbourne University in 1958, followed by an MA from Sydney University in 1963. She then went to Cambridge University in England on a Commonwealth Scholarship and received her PhD in 1968. In London, she became an active contributor to Oz magazine, and was guest editor in July 1970. While lecturing in English at Warwick University, she wrote and published the classic book, The Female Eunuch (1970), which became an essential text for the feminist movement. In 1999, she published its sequel The Whole Woman saying in the introduction: "The time has come to get angry again". She has also written for many newspapers and periodicals and was a regular guest reviewer on BBC TV's The Late Review. Recently, she caused controversy when she walked out of the TV Reality show Big Brother. Germaine Greer was married briefly to Paul Du Feu.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
