5.0 out of 5 stars This Book Makes "Hard" Authors Easy to Read, September 16, 2000

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Great Women Writers 1900-1950 (American Profiles) (Hardcover)
I hadn't read many of the authors covered in this book, but finding out about where they came from, what was going on historically and the struggles they experienced in their own lives made me curious to read their fiction. Unless you've seen the movie version of one of her books, approaching someone like Edith Wharton can be daunting. This book gives you a general idea of plot summaries and themes to help you along and tells you which are the best books by each author. I tried novels of several of the writers discussed here, and Eduora Welty turned out to be my favorite.
