Books like Hellions by Maria Raha

Name: Hellions
Rating: 3 (1 reviews)
Author: Maria Raha

"Modern pop culture and the media have distorted the notion of rebellion. Classic male rebels appear sexy, nomadic - naturally rebellious - while unorthodox women are reprimanded, made to fit unrealistic roles and body images, or mocked for their decadence and self-indulgence. In order to appreciate our legacy of female rebels - and create space for future cultural icons - the notion rebellion needs to be revaluated." "Hellions urges its readers to expand the definition of rebellion to include all kinds of rebel women - from pop stars to political mavericks to renegade thinkers. It's past time to give women rebels their due, and celebrate female rebelliousness the way we do its male equivalent."--Jacket.
