Description
Introduction
Every time I turn the page, my body temperature rises. Suzuki Suzumi's writing is a very calm self-analysis, mixed with vivid truths, and reveals undeniable emotions. - Writer Shimamoto Riki
Chizuko Ueno disintegrated Suzumi Suzuki, allowing her to break free from the hands of her mother and men and start to live as a person. At the same time, this book is also Chizuko Ueno's hands reaching out to many women, including me. This book can save women. - Novelist Kanon Hanabusa
From beginning to end, I felt like I was hit by a blunt object. It was as if someone grabbed my collar and said, "Hey! Don't pretend you didn't see it!" After reading this book, I think there is no woman who will not become a feminist. -Amazon reader
I deeply felt how difficult it is for women to survive. Even so, after reading this book, I feel that being a woman is indeed a blessing. - International political scientist Miura Rurei
