reviewed Caribbean women writers on April 02, 2015 Caribbean women writers
If you've ever experienced righteous indignation at the pouting damsel in distress - be she a doll tied to the tracks in a silent film, or the pseudo-feminist Ally McBeal - this book will feel wonderfully validating. Both the attacks on the Wimpettes and the trumpeting of the Brave Dames (from Jo March to Marge Simpson) are driven by the passion of justice-seeking. If, however, you happen to have enjoyed any of the books, films, or shows involving the Wimpettes, you may feel defensive and irritated. I didn't - as much as I loved her supporting cast, Ally McBeal had it coming. I only wish the book were longer and more comprehensive.
