Watching this movie was like flipping through the book, reading only a few paragraphs from each chapter. I’m not sure I’d even understand what’s going on without reading the book. It was a nice reminder, but a bad movie.

This is a fascinating story, very empowering. I started reading it and didn’t put it down till the end.
I wish every woman in the world will have the courage of Mukhtar Mai.

I’ve read very good reviews about this book. It seemed to be overrated, it wasn’t what I expected from the reviews, it wasn’t what I expected from the back cover, and it wasn’t that good in general.

I love books that mix the present with the past, and this one does it beautifully.
I expected a different ending. I always look for the obvious closure, but I like it better that way it is.

One of the most enjoying books I’ve read. The entire reading was pure fun.
This is a great tale, but also full of wise criticism about some social issues that still relevant to our times.
Highly recommended!

I liked this book, it was interesting. Compared to another book from the myths series, “The Penelopiad”, it was a bit disappointing. It wasn’t really the story of Samson from a different angle, it was more like a story about the story of Samson. There are interesting interpretations in the book and I enjoyed Grossman’s clever remarks, but I’d be more interested in reading this story from one of the character’s view, for example.

Disturbing.
Fascinating.

This is not a book, it’s a long flier.
Someone handed me a copy in the street so I read it on the bus.
The Hebrew translation is embarrassing, full of spelling mistakes and even wrong punctuation.
And as for the subject, well, boo-hoo. As I said, nothing more than a long flier. There’s no real interest in the text itself, just another try to get people closer to the writer’s belief.

I was wondering how to rate this book. It started interesting but became like a puzzle of hard stories, sometimes unclear.
The last parts are so impressive and empowering that made the book definitely worth reading.

I like stories about “a Shifting Self” as it’s called here. I believe it can teach everyone something important about themself and about other.

(and on this topic, I also recomand “The Color of Water”)

This short book keeps the promise in the title and shows that feminism is really for everybody.
Shout “feminism” in a room full of people and you’ll get a lot of different remarks. This book can answer a lot of them, and it does it well.
