Also that's really cool how privilege of men and oppression against women is expressed in this book, it's so true that it's not the super 'evil' characters who are the only ones who do this
Oddly enough I was reading a sample from one of the latest Ring of Fire novels last night that made exactly the same point. “You can’t expect miracles from a man born in the last century — by which I mean the sixteenth century. You can’t even call Wallenstein a male chauvinist because he’d be mystified by the term. What does a man have to be ‘chauvinistic’ about? He’d ask. Nature’s way is what it is, that’s all.”
