5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent background for Gilman studies, August 10, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Charlotte Perkins Gilman: A Nonfiction Reader (Paperback)
I taught a short course on "Reading Gilman," and chose this and the Penguin fiction anthology. Ceplair's book gives an excellent overview of Gilman's life and work, with an emphasis on her nonfiction work that is not available from other sources. I'm not a Gilman scholar so I can't speak to the choice of pieces he includes in the book, but the introductions and biographical notes are very well written and make an easy read for both graduate and undergraduate students. He presents Gilman's contradictory and complex thought sensitively and with compassion.
