3.0 out of 5 stars didn't age well, June 14, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Murderess Ink: The Better Half of the Mystery (Paperback)
Murderess Ink is dedidcated to women in mystery: both writers, beloved characters and types such as the nosey neighbor lady, the beautiful orphan and of course, the little old lady. It was great fun when I bought it in the 80s but it hasn't aged well. The whole thing has a heavy handed feminist air and since this is a collection of essays and opinions it's not entirely accurate. For example, the descriptions of the women of the James Bond novels is completley wrong. I still pick my copy up every now and again and it is a good introduction to a number of books and authors even the most devoted mystery fan has probably never heard of.
