Customer Reviews

Highly Recommended as an invaluable resource

This is a really terrific book that synthesizes an enormous amount of information in a lively and helpful format. A must for anyone interested in women's writing and how women have been portrayed in fiction. I have read all of Felder's books, and this is on the same high standard. Highly Recommended.
