Apparently all I do is review books...

Seduction and Betrayal (New York Review Books Classics) Seduction and Betrayal by Elizabeth Hardwick


My review


rating: 3 of 5 stars
Hardwick is a gifted critic, and I did enjoy her book a bundle. Keep in mind that Seduction and Betrayal is soley focused on examining female authors, and the wives of some famous male authors. Because of this, it seemed repetitive sometimes, although there were some stand out essays such as her pieces on Plath, and Fitzgerald's wife Zelda. The long title essay is also one of the better works in this collection.
