MY LIFE ON THE ROAD

Gloria Steinem recounts the struggles and joys she found in her literal and metaphorical journeys as a feminist leader and journalist. Debra Winger brings Steinem's words to life with a tone of quiet passion. Her leisurely pace and conversational tone convey Steinem's weathered wisdom. Winger's patient tone and pacing lend thoughtful strength to passages of conviction. When reading Steinem's observations on oppression, Winger's tone is appropriately solemn and saddened, but she never allows her voice to be steeped in defeat. In this way, she embodies Steinem's steady, hopeful persistence in her fight for women's equality. A foreword read by Steinem herself adds a personal touch to an inspiring narration.
