5.0 out of 5 stars fascinating read, March 30, 2002

By A Customer

Very enjoyable book. Frost has a great style -- clear and insightful, but also fun to read. Her text has a really fresh/honest vision and is well worth your time, if you're interested in a new look at the complex relationship between fascism, modern literature, and by extension, modern culture.
