Enraged by injustice, they are each in touch with what is most painful about being human, bound together by their willingness to bring the unspeakable to light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaking the argument into the present are today's women, courageous individuals involved in some of the cruelest realities of our times. Grappling with the existence of honor killing--notably through the stories of Shafilea Ahmed, Fadime Sahindal, and Heshu Yones--Rose argues that the struggles of feminism are far from done. In the final three chapters, Rose celebrates the work of three brilliant contemporary artists--Esther Shalev-Gerz, Yael Bartana, and Thérèse Oulton--whose work grows out of an unflinching engagement with all that is darkest in the modern world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWomen in Dark Times shows us how these visionary women offer a new template for feminism. Taking their stand against the iniquities of our times, they tread a path between public and private pain, confronting us with what we need most urgently but also often cannot bear to see.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jacqueline Rose","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48604314927409,"sku":"140884540","price":80.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/6602\/9617\/files\/9781408845400.jpg?v=1742553936","url":"https:\/\/funzone.ae\/products\/women-in-dark-times","provider":"Funzone","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
