Recenzii

"The reissued novel as introduced by Dana Seitler is refreshing at an historical moment in which questions about the purpose of American studies demand transcultural repsonses ..."---American Studies in Scandinavia, Vol 36:1, 2004 "[A] very interesting [novel], especially if you are a haunted reader of 'The Yellow Wallpaper.' Reading it is akin to poring over the sketches that (early or late) might surround the full-length work of the one-book writer. It allows us to trace in its pages evidence, scattered throughout, of the talent that ran restless in its author throughout her stormy, stubborn, furiously engaged years, yet flared into fully achieved life but once."--Vivian Gornick, The Nation "The Crux is an engaging polemic against Victorian sexual double standards. But rather than offering a narrative of sexual liberation, Gilman calls on readers to sacrifice personal pleasure for the nation... If this doesn't sound like the feminism you know and love, The Crux offers an invaluable education on the darker side of the women's movement... The Crux offers a fascinating look at a specific cultural moment in American history, while also reminding us to think critically about even the most 'progressive' movements."--Lauren Kaminsky, Bust

Textul de pe ultima copertă

"With reproductive technologies at the center of feminist, medical, and national debate, "The Crux" offers a fascinating historical perspective on the relationship of reproduction and nationalism. Dana Seitler's introduction offers a useful context in which to read Charlotte Perkins Gilman's quirky, biology-based feminism, her depiction of a women's community in the west, and, generally, the relationship between fiction-writing and the fashioning of gender roles that fueled Gilman's particular brand of activism."--Priscilla Wald, author of "Constituting Americans: Cultural Anxiety and Narrative Form"
