Book VG: mild shelf wear, mild scuff front corner board, else clean, square, tight, unmarked/DJ VG-: age/soil, NOT clipped.. 8vo 480pp. from front flap: "Bram Dijkstra's new book, ten years in work, is a stunning inquiry into the idea of woman as seductress: how, in many areas of twentieth-century high and popular culture, the female came to be portrayed as a regressive, primitive force whose sexuality could destroy the social order, undermining the supremacy of the white male--and shows the devastating historical effects of this portrayal." #02408.
