SUMMARY:Ellen Feldman reads from her new book Terrible Virtue
DESCRIPTION:The daughter of a hard-drinking\, smooth-tongued free thinker and a mother worn down by thirteen children\, Margaret Sanger vowed her life would be different. Trained as a nurse\, she fought for social justice beside labor organizers\, anarchists\, socialists\, and other progressives\, eventually channeling her energy to one singular cause: legalizing contraception. It was a battle that would pit her against puritanical\, patriarchal lawmakers\, send her to prison again and again\, force her to flee to England\, and ultimately change the lives of women across the country and around the world. This complex enigmatic revolutionary was at once vain and charismatic\, generous and ruthless\, sexually impulsive and coolly calculating—a competitive\, self-centered woman who championed all women\, a conflicted mother who suffered the worst tragedy a parent can experience. From opening the first illegal birth control clinic in America in 1916 through the founding of Planned Parenthood to the arrival of the Pill in the 1960s\, Margaret Sanger sacrificed two husbands\, three children\, and scores of lovers in her fight for sexual equality and freedom.
