EV's Most Popular Reviews

This book is far from reliable accounts. It's full of hearsay statements using words like, "speculations, maybe, may..." It's great someone's writing a book about pre-columbus America. However, the slim evidence presented was weak to me. It felt like a story was being told rather than a "supposedly" scientific book.

Worst manga I've ever read. Very shallow and bland.

Overall, great book. However, some of the language used is insensitive and homophobic. For instance, how can a 15-year-old be a “sex worker” when she is not of consensual age?

The title should be, "A Western Approach After Sappho". Are only Italians, Greek, French, English women Sappho? The mention of "intelligent green eyes" about 4 times in the book feels incongruous. Would not recommend as it is exclusive.
