Radical Homemakers

I spent the past hour writing a long-winded post about why I think you should read this book. Then I read through it and decided it made me sound like a pompous ass and deleted the whole damn thing.

I'll keep it short and sweet.

Read. This. Book. Seriously. It's informative, educational, moving, and very enlightening. Even if you think, based on the description, that the book sounds like a bunch of hippy-dippy BS, give it a try. And if you are a mother/parent, please pick this up (or borrow it).

Radical Homemakers: Reclaiming Domesticity From a Consumer Culture by Shannon Hayes

Oh, and here's an article by the author, Shannon Hayes, that gives a great synopsis of the book (for those of you who need more info than the book jacket on Amazon).
