A unique collection of feminist prose and poetry in five sections: I. Epistles: epistles written by Eve Cains wife Noahs wife Delilah the Queen of Sheba Mary and others - as if they were feminist II. Myths: the myths within the myths revealed - what might Pandora Circe Penelope Eurydice Persephone the Gorgons and others have thought and done if they had not been the creations of a chauvinist patriarchy? III. Letters: letters that might have been written by Lady Godiva Miltons daughter Rubens model Mozarts mother Freuds wife Platos students and others - assuming a feminist consciousness IV. Soliloquies: soliloquies delivered by Juliet Ophelia Lady MacBeth Kate Desdemona Regan Miranda and others - protesting the role given to them by Shakespeare V. Fairy Tales: the classic fairy tales retold - what would have happened if Gretel Cinderella Little Red Riding Hood Snow White Sleeping Beauty and others had been strong and critical girls and women living today? ...an excellent and much recommended pick for unique fiction collections.
