The book does explore intresting themes of capitalism and the body, for instance the move from women working in the factory to the home, but i often had to stiffle a groan at Slivia Federici's incessant technophobia.

Mammamia raga. Questo libro è tritolo puro. Fa esplodere ogni tua certezza, ogni tua radicata convinzione. Ti fa perdere l'equilibrio. Ma lo trovo assolutamente necessario (non perché sia d'accordo su tutto quello che dice l'autrice, ma perché ti semina dentro qualcosa, un dubbio, una stortura e se te ne accorgi sei al 50% di quello che ti manca per arrivare al cuore delle cose). Da leggere.

Honestly a must read book! Learned so much about the history of feminism and I got to understand multiple perspectives as to what feminism means to someone. There were some triggering lines, but I would still read again. This is a book that I would recommend to ANYONE!

I don't usually write reviews, but I couldn't help myself this time. Overall, I liked the book and it brings up many good points. However Federici's negative views on IVF/surrogacy and her use of outdated TERF-y lqnguage made me want to DNF the book on multiple occasions.

I am ostensibly a Federici stan, but this collection was… bad. Very surface-level arguments/ kinda transphobic/ anti technology but not in a smart way. Idk. I liked the essay on sex work and not much else. Read Revolution at Point Zero instead.
