geriatricgretch's review
3.0
Very dated, but some interesting perspectives. Moore draws a lot of parallels between Baum's utopia and 60s hippie communes, which is an interesting perspective I hadn't thought of yet. She virtually ignores the feminism in Baum's book, which I think is also part of the dating. She's also fairly negative about Baum himself, which is new for me. In later books I've read her scholarship is criticized, but there are still some interesting points brought up.
