4.0 out of 5 stars
Exciting biographies & original portraits,
This review is from: Women of Words: A Personal Introduction to Thirty-Five Important Writers (Hardcover)
These thirty-five authors are unique writers and women. Short bios are accompanied with selections from their best-known works. Great way to "taste" author's style. Marvelous original portraits of each add greatly to beauty of the book.

well conceived; well executed,
By A Customer
This review is from: Women of Words: A Personal Introduction to Thirty-Five Important Writers (Hardcover)
A beautiful coffee table book that is worthy of being read by anyone who likes literature and literary figures, and especially by those who admire women of rare talent who have succeeded, often against high odds, in getting women's words heeded. It is interesting to note the birth/death dates under each of the 35 names. In the 1700s and throughout most of the 1800s they died tragically young by today's standards. Only in this century has one lived into her 90s. Not designed to be comprehensive; the choices are admirable.
