Each contributes its tale to the history of women: a healed femur (Margaret Mead\u2019s answer when asked about the first sign of human civilization), a washing paddle (\u201can essential piece of equipment for any country-dwelling woman\u201d), a Remington typewriter (new jobs, new ways for women to express themselves), the minidress (\u201cthe garment of the sexual revolution\u201d), Kim Kardashian\u2019s ring (\u201cexhibiting yourself isn\u2019t without its risks, but it also bestows power\u201d). The book\u2019s final entry is \u201ca bunch of hair,\u201d an inclusion meant to highlight the omission of the headscarf or veil, an article whose complex significance fills this provocative chapter. The work has been greatly enhanced in the audio version by the voices of 101 (chiefly British) women, itself a truly daunting achievement. An elegant-voiced Helen Mirren gives us perfumed gloves, Helena Bonham Carter celebrates the hatpin, Kate Winslet handles the cinematograph, Lisa-Kaind\u00e9 Diaz waxes breathily over Chanel No. 5, and hard-nosed Val McDermid presents the thumbscrew. And somehow, strangely, Angelica Huston has ended up with Tupperware. Endlessly fascinating and diverse in the voices presenting it, this is a wonderful, kaleidoscopic exploration of history.
