Made into a major motion picture that garnered an Oscar nomination, Diary of a Mad Housewife is a classic of women's fiction that gave a wry voice to the nascent feminist stirrings of the 1960s and helped incite a revolution in the consciousness of a generation. It is the basis for the 1970 film starring Carrie Snodgress, Richard Benjamin and Frank Langella.
