Title: Unoriginal and Illogical
Product review: The New Victorians is one of the worst books I have read about feminism. It contains no new insights and relies disturbingly on mistaken and simplistic historical notions about the Victorians. Denfeld ends up becoming so obsessed with the supposed commonalities between the Victorians and the feminists of today that she forgets to give an argument as to what exactly is so bad about the plethora of policies and people that she labels "Victorian." She takes the easy way out by using "Victorian" as some sort of epithet, apparently thinking that the reader is an idiot and will not notice the absence of any justification for her views.In addition to being devoid of any substantial argument, this book is simply unoriginal. Furthermore, it is written so poorly that it is painful to read. The author cannot write a decent paragraph and spends too much time writing about herself. I would not recommend wasting your money or your time on this book.
