Selected New Books 26-27 April 2012

✺     ✺     ✺     ✺     ✺

OK - I confess. I tried very hard to keep up with the output of new and updated books from Gutenberg, which worked well until my schedule was interrupted, and there's no way to catch up by doing things how I was, publishing excerpts from every interesting book. It takes too long.

So... at least until I can catch up – which may well be never! – here's the deal. I will go through the titles and choose the ones that interest me, and cull many which don't appeal. My tendency has been to try to highlight those that concern women's writing and portrayal of women.

Generally I've ignored novels, except for classics that have been offered for the first time or updated/corrected.

The star rating is based completely on the book's appeal to me. It may be because of its content, or good illustrations.
