猎巫运动曾为我们打造了某种令人恐惧的女巫形象：她们施行邪术，她们顽固不化，她们衰老丑陋……然而，这首气势磅礴的意识形态之诗遍布着厌女情绪的韵脚，其余风依旧浸染着当今世界对女性的评判。莫娜·肖莱为我们除去了掩人耳目的矫饰，呈现出真正的“女巫”形象：她们独立生活，她们自然老去，她们掌控着自己的身体与性。 这里探讨的是三种不同类型的女性人生： 不依赖他人的——自主权并不意味着关系的缺失，而是可以建立关系，但这些关系必须尊重我们的完整性、我们的自由意志，让我们能全面绽放，而不是自我束缚； 不囿于母职的——改变自己的命运，或者只是让日子变得有希望，都得先让生孩子变成随心所欲、想做就做、不想做就不做的一件事； 不惧怕衰老的——女人并不是非得保持自己年轻时的样子，她们完全有权利用另一种面貌、另一种美丽来丰富自己。 “女巫”是唯一通过自身来持有某种能力的女性原型，她不因其他人而被定义，所以，“女巫”的继承者们，请承继这种力量，为自己而绽放吧！ 将这一辈子活成你们能做到的最好的样子！

如果这是你人生中的最后一天，你会讲述什么？日本NHK电视台大受好评的纪录片《最后的讲义》完全版。影响日本百万人的知名漫画家西原理惠子写给女性的生存哲学，人生最重要的不是如何上位，而是防止下沉。比北野武更毒舌，比上野千鹤子更扎心的过来人忠言，人生有弯路，每个人都需要适时被打醒。只要付出努力几乎都能得到相应的回报。但也会有例外发生，人生总有一些不讲理的时候。 “作为一个从旁门左道走到今天的老太太，我今天想对你们说的不是勉励你们如何去成为一个认真优秀的人，更不是向你们灌输所谓人的理想状态云云。相反我想教你们一些避免危机的方法，例如什么时候可以选择逃避，什么情况下最好放弃。”

宫崎骏、高畑勋、押井守、富野由悠季、大友克洋、安彦良和、川口开治……他们注定是日本动漫产业历史上影响最为深远、最为举足轻重的一代人，他们大多在20世纪六七十年代度过青春期，而那个时代，正是日本战后左翼社会运动最激烈的时代。日美安保条约掀起了长达十多年的社会运动风潮，正是这场日本历史上空前绝后的社会运动，洗礼了整整一代日本年轻人，其中的很多人投身日本动漫产业，共同打造出日本战后对世界影响最深远的文化产业，铸就了战后日本动漫的黄金时代。 本书从动漫人和动漫作品的角度出发，探寻黄金一代动漫人的青春岁月，追寻左翼社会运动与日本动漫亚文化的关联与脉络。
