marissaddillon 's review for:

After Sappho by Selby Wynn Schwartz

3.0

I think this would be perfect for a literature course and could see myself reading it in my past M.A. program. It’s a collection of the lives of women in the late 1800s - mid 1900s and though some of the stories are created, it is based on real women and real events. It’s beautifully connected, overlapping and woven, and gave me more books to read and women to research. The vignettes are interesting and break genre like many of the women in the piece, but I didn’t absolutely love it.
