- Summary
- "This collection of essays explores objects that changed Australian women's lives through their association with women's liberation, the Australian women's movement, and feminism since 1970. Each essay hinges on a particular object that is remembered for its symbolic value and practical use as an object of liberation, ranging from overalls and gestetners, to seasponges and kombis. It combines personal narrative, historical analysis, and memoir"--Jacket, p. [4].
