Reviews
“What an extraordinary collection of worthwhile writing, brave in many cases, beautiful in almost all.” —Grace Paley
“This impressive collection of first-rate short fiction is like a jeweler’s tray of tidy, brilliant gems. Fine literary talent—some well known, others who will become so—has been assembled in a cross-cultural range from Japanese to Jewish, Native American to Korean , Mexican to Mormon. Anyone who still doubts the existence of a multicultural ‘women’s culture’ will be forever changed by this book—and will have enjoyed a fine read in the bargain.” —Robin Morgan
“A refreshing, rich, satisfying collection…. A great mix of voices including Jewish, Mormon, lesbian, Native American, African American, Asian and Mexican and styles ranging from the plain spoken to the magical/ mystical.” —ForeWord
