Faithful Transgressions In The American West: Six Twentieth-Century Mormon Women's Autobiographical Acts
This book reminds me of a conversation I had with my (engineer) husband about an assignment for my Current Issues in Mormonism class (for which class I read this book). The instructions said to dig deep, past the obvious answers. His response was, "why do you have to dig past the obvious answers? They are obvious because they are right! You go past that, you venture into made-up territory! Is she asking you to make up answers?"
I didn't really like this book. Apparently, I am not cut out to be a feminist or a religious study major.
