in admiration,

This review is from: The Leap Year (Paperback)
I was taken by this book! First, when I read in newspaper articles about the collection of women writers.. their lives, backgrounds and aspirations. Second, when I read it! and aren't short stores far harder to write than novels? (check our Bernard Shaw on the art of brevity!). This book does it for me. It gets my vote!
