Summary

Non-free media information and use rationale true for Germaine Greer
Description

Cover of the first Paladin paperback edition of The Female Eunuch (1970) by Germaine Greer, the first edition with the iconic cover of a woman's torso as a suit hanging from a rail, with a handle on each hip. Created by John Holmes, the cover became an icon of second-wave feminism.

Clive Hamilton called it "perhaps the most memorable and unnerving book cover ever created." (Hamilton, Clive (2016). What Do We Want?: The Story of Protest in Australia. Sydney: National Library of Australia. p. 44.)

Christine Wallace described it as "one of the most intriguing and instantly recognizable images in post-war publishing." (Wallace, Christine (1999) [1997]. Germaine Greer: Untamed Shrew. London: Faber and Faber. p. 161.)
