Title
To Write Like a Woman: Essays in Feminism and Science Fiction - Paperback
by Joanna Russ (Author)
"To Write Like a Woman is a rare example of a feminist tackling science fictuion using postmodern theory, which makes for a much more sophisticated and nuanced appraisal than the usual fare." --Passion
"Russ' essays are witty and insightful. An excellent book for any writer or reader." --Feminist Bookstore News
"In her new book of essays . . . Russ continues to debunk and demand, edify and entertain. . . . Appreciative of surface aesthetics, she continually delves deeper than most critics, yet in terms so simple and accessible that her essays read like lively, angry, humorous dialogues conducted face-to-face with the author. Russ is the antithesis of the distant critic in her ivory tower." --Paul Di Filippo, The Washington Post Book World
" . . . 20 years of the author's feisty reports from the front lines of literature." --The San Francisco Review of Books
"This is a book of imaginative and provoking essays, but you should read it for the sheer fun of it." --The Women's Review of Books
"Collects more than two decades of criticism by Joanna Russ, one of the most perceptive, forthright and eloquent feminist commentators around." --Feminist Bookstore News
" . . . a super book. . . .This is a book that, for once, really will appeal to readers of all kinds." --Utopian Studies
"If you enjoy science fiction, this is definitely a book that you'll want to talk about. I found myself sneaking a few pages at times when I really didn't have time to read." --Jan Catano, Atlantis
