L'AUTOMOBILE E' FEMMINA: E DIETRO OGNI MOTORE... UNA DONNA
Between the pages of this book, we immerse ourselves in a universe where desires, passions, dreams and inventions come together in a fascinating union with Automotive, an elitist world of men only.
The protagonists of these enthralling stories were not trying to imitate men, but simply desired the freedom to choose their own path in life, demonstrating extraordinary determination at a time when prejudices and stereotypes of gender were pervasive during a period of great change.
The first part of L'automobile è femmina: E dietro ogni motore… una donna tells the stories of women behind great brands such as Laura Garello, wife of Enzo Ferrari, and Annita Borgatti, wife of Ferruccio Lamborghini.
It is important to emphasise that they were not only wives, mothers and daughters, but also competent and enterprising administrators, while their husbands were concentrating on creating extraordinary automobiles.
In the second part of the book, the role of women from the 18th century to the present day is explored, highlighting their unique struggles for freedom and tenacious perseverance in their convictions.
In the third part of the book, the concept of Automotive is defined by tracing the origins of Supercars and providing a summary of the major car manufacturers. The crucial roles of the great coachbuilders are also examined.
Through the eyes of a woman, the book sensitively reveals the stories of extraordinary women, immersing us passionately in the world of automotive.
With determination, L'automobile è femmina underlines a well-known fact: the significant contribution of women in a sector traditionally dominated by men, sending out a powerful message of change. The author, with her female perspective, has been able to put this reality down on paper.
