reviewed Out in Public: Configurations of Women's Bodies in Nineteenth-Century America on April 16, 2011 Out in Public: Configurations of Women's Bodies in Nineteenth-Century America
I'm not a reader who often leaves a book unfinished, but I couldn't complete this one. While the content is well researched (and thus this would be a great book for research purposes), it's not the kind of book you want to read for the enjoyment of learning about the subject. I was looking for a general biography of Marti's life, this book focuses Marti's writing and experiences about living in America, its political, racial, and gender issues. There are chapters on Marti's poetry in regards to Emerson, and Marti's dramatic death.
Sounds interesting, but also pretty dry.
