It's an okay book.
A collection of essays all with the same theme, that of Witches and Witchcraft.

The witch never really goes away, they always remaining lurking in the imagination. At least that is what is suggested by this collection of writings and reviews from the past couple of decades taken from the London Review of Books. It demonstrates the range and malleability the witch has in culture as the pieces cover a broad spectrum of issues and publications. It was a great collection to read through and encouraged me to pull a couple of forgotten books of my shelf to read again and to go on a (witch)hunt for a couple of new additions to the shelves.

Everyone should read this if you want to understand the suppression of women’s rights.
