內容簡介

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie以We Should All Be Feminists、Americanah兩本書讓世界讀者對她留下深刻印象,這次以寫信的方式,再次為女權運動提出有力的證言。

幾年前Adichie收到了一封好友的來信,信中詢問「要如何將女兒養育成女性主義者」,這本書就是Adichie的回覆,其中這十五個建議不僅回覆好友的疑問,也獻給所有有同樣困擾的家長們。

這些建議包括:在選擇玩具時,告訴女兒娃娃不是唯一選項,她也可以勇敢選擇直升機;以開放的態度和女兒討論衣服、化妝、性別認知等話題;告訴她女性待在家裡煮飯不是女性唯一的角色,出外工作也不需要獲得丈夫同意……等。

本書出版後再度讓Adichie的主張受到注目,沒有意外地登上紐約時報暢銷榜,也獲得各大媒體的盛讚,她給好友的回覆讓所有人都正視,在二十一世紀身為一個女人該有的樣子。

A powerful statement about feminism today from “one of the world’s great contemporary writers” (Barack Obama), the author of Americanah and We Should All Be Feminists.

A few years ago, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie received a letter from a childhood friend, a new mother who wanted to know how to raise her baby girl to be a feminist. Dear Ijeawele is Adichie’s letter of response: fifteen invaluable suggestions—direct, wryly funny, and perceptive—for how to empower a daughter to become a strong, independent woman. Filled with compassionate guidance and advice, it gets right to the heart of sexual politics in the twenty-first century, and starts a new and urgently needed conversation about what it really means to be a woman today.
