| Description |
Margot Mason, iconoclast, visionary and monstrous egotist, is a famous feminist writer, struggling to finish her
next book. So when her comfortable home is invaded by an obsessed, gun-toting fan, her indignity knows no
bounds. How could this confused and angry young woman be her nemesis? From the very first moment, audiences are plunged into a smart and witty comedy of ideas, crackling with brilliant one-liners. In The Female of the Species, feminism has found its farcical funny bone, but the belly laughs are spiked with sharp truths and no viewpoint is off limits.
