افسانه زیبایی

The bestselling classic that redefined our view of the relationship between beauty and female identity. In todays world, women have more power, legal recognition, and professional success than ever before. Alongside the evident progress of the womens movement, however, writer and journalist Naomi Wolf is troubled by a different kind of social control, which, she argues, may prove just as restrictive as the traditional image of homemaker and wife. Its the beauty myth, an obsession with physical perfection that traps the modern woman in an endless spiral of hope, self-consciousness, and self-hatred as she tries to fulfill societys impossible definition of the flawless beauty.
