About the Author/作者介绍: When Susan Faludi published Backlash: The Undeclared War Against American Women in 1992, the moment seemed ripe for a feminist revival. Bill Clinton had been elected, essentially, by women; Anita Hill had outed Clarence Thomas and sparked a national discussion on sexual harassment and gender inequality in the workplace; and Washington had hosted the largest pro-choice rally ever assembled. Meanwhile, Faludi’s book, which investigated the myths of women’s improving economic and social lives, crested the best-seller lists for almost nine months. Faludi herself became something of a cultural icon -- a professional feminist, pictured on the cover of Time. But Faludi has always been, above all, a journalist -- in 1991 she won a Pulitzer Prize for labor reporting for the Wall Street Journal. In the early 1990s, the stories she saw had mainly to do with men’s anger and confusion. She started hanging out at job clubs and rallies. She spent time with male porn stars and cadets. Her new book, Stiffed: The Betrayal of the American Man, will be published in October.
当Susan Faludi出版本书时:1992年,美国未经宣战的对抗妇女运动,这是主张男女平等运动的成熟时机。Bill Clinton已被当选为美国总统,更重要的,他是靠女性的选票而当选的;Anita Hill淘汰了Clarence Thomas,并发起了工作中性骚扰和性别歧视的国际讨论;华盛顿举办了赞成堕胎合法化的统一大游行。同时Faludi在书中详细调查研究了女性提高经济,和为社会生活所做出的贡献,Faludi连续九个月蝉联最佳畅销书作者名单榜首的地位。在某种程度上,Faludi她自己成了文化形象的标志——专业的男女平等倡导者,成了美国时代杂志的封面人物。但Faludi一直都是以新闻工作者的身份为第一位的——在1991年,她因成功报道了华尔街新闻事件,而获得了普立兹奖(根据普立兹的遗言,每年颁发给对于音乐、新闻业、美国史、传记文学、诗、剧、小说等各岗位上有贡献的美国公民之奖)。在二十世纪九十年代初期,她主要关注的是男性混乱的生活状态。她开始经常出入各类酒吧和各类聚集地,与各类从事色情事业的男性和军事学员打交道。她的新书《Stiffed: The Betrayal of the American Man》将在十月出版。
