Jessamyn West by Jessamyn West: I liked it!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Crimson ramblers of the world, farewell (Paperback)
For a book that's almost 30 years old, Jessamyn West's collection of short stories is still relevant, amusing and inspiring today.I became interested in Ms. West when my parents saw fit to saddle me with the name of someone already famous in her own right and when I got over the adulation I received by English teachers and began exploring her fiction I found her to be the forthright feminist author I had always been looking for. This book contains many stories including one about a birdwatcher who gets devoured by buzzards, a woman living in a TB ward and, my personal favorite, The Condemned Librarian. Despite these often depressing topics, West's characters have a sense of personal dignity that brings them through the oddest and most difficult situations. Readable, interesting and compelling. Read this book! |
