Cultural Sutures: Medicine and Media
Sharply written scholarly study of the "Girl Reporter" (and other women journalists) that subtly glosses the treatment of the female body and women journalists' public personae in the press during the modern period. Lutes' last chapter on how this legacy of women reporters affects modern novelists like Willa Cather and Djuna Barnes is especially powerful. Well-structured and helpful insights. Fascinating to see how Henry James revised Henrietta Stackpole in Portrait of a Lady to condemn her and her ilk.
