A real gem - finally I've found a great Christmas present!
This is a beautiful and beautifully made book, with a very amusing look at the difference in the way heroes, legends and mythical figures are portrayed depending on their gender.

Took about a minute to read cover to cover. Nice artwork but too small for coffee table book. Would have been good calendar. Clever, but waste of money.

This review is from: Domestic Goddesses (Hardcover)
This is a beautiful and beautifully made book, with a very amusing look at the difference in the way heroes, legends and mythical figures are portrayed depending on their gender. The paintings are stunning by themselves, but the text will have you howling with glee. I don't want to give away what makes this book so original and refreshing, but one browse through it and you'll begin to see what I mean. Edith Vonnegut's whole take on the world is a pure delight. -Terence Boylan

A Christmas Stocking Must For All Domestic Goddesses,
By A Customer
This review is from: Domestic Goddesses (Hardcover)
A small but powerful little book full of original Art depicting the daily life of all mothers and homemakers with a sensitive ,mystical sense of humor. Women and men who love creative art will find a treasure of wit as they turn each page. Edith Vonnegut paints with the same offbeat creative humor as is found in her fathers books.

Wonderful, inspired images of women doing the many unnoticed tasks of everyday life. Humorous text and beautiful pictures. If you know anyone who has done the dishes or taken out the trash with purpose and dignity---please get them this book.
