reviewed The Penguin book of modern fantasy by women on June 09, 2010 The Penguin book of modern fantasy by women
A rich, totally rewarding collection of mostly UK & US fantasy stories by women, from 1940 through mid-nineties. Fantasy is loosely defined, the writers chosen are awesome. A lot of my favorites like Angela Carter, Tiptree, Butler, Joanna Russ, Shirley Jackson, and a lot of writers I've been curious about, like Kate Wilhelm and Tanith Lee. I wish it was twice as long, which I guess it arguably is since there's a companion volume of Classic Fantasy by Women, but I read a review that said almost all the women at that point were using male protagonists in their stories which is okay sometimes but a whole book of dude protags? Barf. Okay, I have to share a line from Leonora Carrington's author bio in the back: "During the War she suffered a breakdown and was rescued from a Madrid asylum by her former nanny, who arrived in a submarine."
