Phenomenal; an incredible multiplicity of voices, thoughtfully organized. Still feels very urgent and necessary nearly 30 years after its publication. My main complaint is the lack of inclusion of out transfem authors; though discussions of transfeminity are definitely present in the book, they remain entirely marginal.

Probably the best gender book I have found. (And I have scoured the HQ sections of multiple academic libraries!) I have to buy this at some point, because I keep finding new ideas in it.

there were a few really stellar pieces in here, by authors who can hardly be found elsewhere, which is great. i don't like reading excerpts from longer works and there was an awful lot of that here. maybe, though, these authors were too hard to find otherwise. because the editors did do a nice job of incorporating writing from many places in the world.

i didn't like the number of excerpts and i didn't like all of the writing, but this is an excellent look at international writing and translating, and has some work by authors that are hard to find elsewhere, so for that it's worth it. i still had a hard time getting through it and was hoping to like more of the selections than i did, though.… (mais)
