M. O'Donnell

V odnoj bezymjannoj strane sluchilsja ekonomicheskij krizis, vzletela bezrabotitsa, i na vershinu vzoshel diktator, kotoryj reshil problemu nezatejlivo: zapretil zhenschinam rabotat, chtoby oni ne otnimali rabotu u muzhchin. Mesto zhenschiny doma, ej polozheno rozhat detej i obikhazhivat muzha, ne tak li? Tri desjatiletija polovina naselenija strany zhivet, ne podnimaja golovy. Bolshinstvu zhenschin naznacheno byt bezglasnym prilozheniem k muzhchinam i reguljarno proizvodit detej, a nekotorykh vse-taki objazali truditsja, odnako poruchili im tolko tjazheluju i grjaznuju rabotu, na kotoruju muzhchiny ne soglasjatsja, i objavili ljudmi dazhe ne vtorogo, a tretego sorta. Vse eti gody zhenschin vospityvajut sootvetstvenno - s detstva oni slyshat, chto bolshe ni na chto ne godny, - no nekotorye na promyvku mozgov ne poddajutsja. I teper, tridtsat let spustja, neskolko bespravnykh rabotnits pod pokrovom temnoty v podvale zabroshennogo doma gotovjatsja k vosstaniju, kotoroe odna iz nikh planirovala godami, a mezhdu tem ikh po vsemu gorodu ischet tajnaja politsija... Margaret O'Donnell (1932-2019) - irlandskaja obschestvennaja aktivistka, borovshajasja za prava zhenschin, dejatelnaja uchastnitsa dvizhenija za legalizatsiju kontratseptsii v Irlandii. Antiutopija "Ulej", na pjat let operedivshaja i predvoskhitivshaja "Rasskaz Sluzhanki" Margaret Etvud, - edinstvennyj roman O'Donnell, klassika feministskoj literatury, na neskolko desjatiletij nezasluzhenno zabytyj, - vozvraschaetsja k nam tolko sejchas i zvuchit, uvy, po-prezhnemu ochen zlobodnevno. Eto roman o tom, chto menjatsja muchitelno, no vozmozhno i neizbezhno, a jarostnaja mechta odnoj-edinstvennoj zhenschiny o spravedlivosti sposobna probudit k zhizni sotni tysjach drugikh i podtolknut mir k peremenam. Vpervye na russkom!
