Description
Combining firsthand accounts of five differently situated Portuguese women, who describe their lives in a rural fishing community on the north coast of Portugal with cultural and economic analysis, this work radically departs from the picture of women as sexual beings that prevails in the anthropological literature on Europe and the Mediterranean.
