The rest of the title is: The Women Who Made an Art of Having an Opinion. It is basically about women critics since 1900s, at least some of the major ones. I recognized some of the newer names like Nora Ephron and Susan Sontag and older one Hannah Arendt. I had read some Arendt in college and was probably reason I picked it up from the library sale when I saw it. I thought would be more about the individual people/women but was that somewhat but also the interaction between themselves and feminism in general. Also throw in some more insider stuff on critics too. Not really what I was expecting but still interesting at points. I had started it at end of March--being Women's month so figured it was the time to read it.
There are 5 WL for this book on PBS so will probably post & mail off at some point.
