Andrea Dworkin (1946-2005) was a radical American feminist activist and writer. She is the author of numerous books, including Pornography, Right-Wing Women, Woman Hating, Intercourse, and more.

"Bracing to read. . . 'Right-Wing Women, ' like the rest of her work, is suffused with Dworkin's uncanny mix of hard-nosed realism and wild-eyed idealism. For all her radical commitments, she still contained multitudes, and she expected the same of the women's movement. The solidarity she envisioned was expansive, as well as difficult: 'Every woman's fate is tied to the fate of women whom she politically and morally abhors.'" --Jennifer Szalai, The New York Times

"Erudite and audacious . . . A review that examined the gamut of sometimes surprising and always intriguing conclusions in Right-Wing Women would have to be as long as the book itself. . . [Dworkin] strikes me as emphatically right about the two options women face. One is the withering pragmatism of compromise; the other is the wild irrationality of hope." --Becca Rothfeld, The Washington Post
