This was a really good collection of essays. Some I enjoyed more than others. I struggled through the Ibsen essays as I'm not familiar with his works, but the Brontes, Zelda, and Woolf were very good. The last chapter, the titular essay, was really interesting too. (So many seduced young women who, of course get pregnant from the seduction.) I've struggled reading other Hardwick before, but now I feel like I should give her fiction another chance.
