HUGHES, TED - THE IRON WOMAN: SEQUEL TO THE IRON MAN - (1ST IN SOUTH AFRICA

 Faber & Faber 1994 - was a library book but book and wrapper still in very good condition - by that very good looking husband of poor Sylvia Plath.   >>>   The Iron Woman  is the 1993 sequel to the popular  Ted Hughes  novel  The Iron Man. "The Iron Woman has come to take revenge on mankind for its thoughtless polluting of the seas, lakes and rivers" says the introduction to the novel. It references sexism, in that the iron woman exacts her revenge on a seemingly ignorant/uncaring male community (in the waste disposal plant) for polluting the area in which she lives; however, the book is more of an attack on society for the oblivious ways in which for many decades, a vast amount of habitats have been destroyed or on the brink of annihilation. Ted Hughes' novel is an attempt at getting people to be made aware of and respond to this. *N.B.*   If you buy more than one book from me on the same day you only pay R 6 postage on each additional book - See what else I have to offer, it might be worth your while.
