1. Tropic of Cancer Tropic of Cancer
from Signet Classics

Customer Review:
I read this book several years ago. I wasn't then in a position to fully grasp the lietarary value of it, plus I lost the book!. Now I want to read it again and safekeep it.

2. Women in Love (Signet Classic) Women in Love (Signet Classic)
from Signet Classic

Customer Review:
Scottish novelist Catherine Carswell stated that Women In Love is, "easy to read, but hard to understand." Certainly it is difficult to understand Lawrence, but the Amazon review by Robert Moore of another of his books (The Rainbow) does a good job of describing the essence of Lawrence's literary... more info

3. [no image] The Rainbow (Signet Classic)
from Signet Classics

Customer Review:
This book really awakened my sexuality back in college. I was lifted and washed away on a tide of passionate longing, straight into the arms of a cute road crew guy who had been working on my street that summer. Before I read it, I was just another shy nerd. Afterward! I became the audacious sex... more info

4. Writing as a Way of Healing: How Telling Our Stories Transforms Our Lives Writing as a Way of Healing: How Telling Our Stories Transforms Our Lives
from Beacon Press
Price: $10.88

Customer Review:
This book was a turning point for me in my writing. I found it fascinating to hear the stories behind established authors whose painful beginnings were the sources of their writings. It helped me understand the significance of story, my story included, which created a new confidence in writing. I... more info

5. The Letters of Vita Sackville-West and Virginia Woolf The Letters of Vita Sackville-West and Virginia Woolf
from Cleis Press

Customer Review:
I have long been interested in Virginia Woolf and her works but only recently have I come to admire and respect Vita Sackville-West also. This is a wonderful account of a close friendship between two highly intellectual women and the lives they led. If you are interested at all in either of these... more info

6. [no image] The Voyage Out (Signet classics)
from Signet Classics

Customer Review:
First published in 1915, The Voyage Out is Virginia Woolf's first novel. It begins as Mr. and Mrs. Ambrose embark on a sea voyage for South America. Throughout their voyage and once they reach land there are many characters that float in and out of the text. Indeed, one is not sure who the main... more info

7. Vertigo: A Memoir (The Cross-Cultural Memoir Series) Vertigo: A Memoir (The Cross-Cultural Memoir Series)
from The Feminist Press at CUNY
Price: $15.15

Customer Review:
I found this memoir in one of my favorite bookstores and thought it would be good. The copy I found was very creased in the spine and the jacket looked worn as well. Inside I found pink highlighting, blue ink underlining and some handwritten notes in the margins. I thought the cover looked... more info

8. Crazy in the Kitchen: Foods, Feuds, and Forgiveness in an Italian American Family Crazy in the Kitchen: Foods, Feuds, and Forgiveness in an Italian American Family
from Bloomsbury USA
Price: $11.66

Customer Review:
I felt compelled to write this after reading the other reviews because I believe that a book should be judged in accordance with it's own intentions and not by what other people think it should have been. This book is not the typical happy-family-eating-meatballs memoir, nor is it a light, breezy,... more info

9. Virginia Woolf: The Impact of Childhood Sexual Abuse on Her Life and Work Virginia Woolf: The Impact of Childhood Sexual Abuse on Her Life and Work
from Ballantine Books

Customer Review:
Scholarly without suffering from an overuse of lexicon, DeSalvo's study investigates how sexual abuse affected not only the development of Virginia Woolf's life and fiction but also the lives of the other members of her family as well as their internecine tangle of relationships. DeSalvo portrays... more info

10. Crazy in the Kitchen: Food, Feuds, and Forgiveness in an Italian American Family Crazy in the Kitchen: Food, Feuds, and Forgiveness in an Italian American Family
from Bloomsbury USA

Customer Review:
I usually do not put aside a book before finishing it. In this case, I got about a third of the way through and just skimmed the rest and could not bring myself to read it in detail. I purchased this book hoping (despite prior reviews) that it was more food lit than self analysis. However, the... more info

13. Resurrecting Grace: Remembering Catholic Childhoods Resurrecting Grace: Remembering Catholic Childhoods
from Beacon Press
Price: $17.25

Customer Review:
This is a collection of subtle stories of childhood in which Catholicism is an influence but not always necessarily the dominant one. Sewell has struck a nice balance between established, famous authors and a handful of emerging ones--whose work is among the best in the book. Recommended whether you... more info

14. Adultery Adultery
from Beacon Press
Price: $13.00

Customer Review:
A very objective look at a "taboo" subject. The author's in-depth research and personal experiences offer that there is more depth to adultery and post-adultery life than typical thought trends would allow.

15. [no image] Conceived with Malice: Literature as Revenge in the Lives of Woolf, Lawrence, Barnes, Miller
from Plume

Customer Review:
I'm glad I didn't miss this book. So many literary works seem to contain some vengeance or spite, but this is the first work of criticism that I've come across which studies the constant of revenge across a number of authors.

The betrayals described in the book are extreme, and include a... more info

16. Breathless Breathless
from Beacon Press

Customer Review:
I loved Desalvo's Crazy in the Kitchen and was very eager to read this book, as both my sons have asthma. However, I found this read extremely irritating. Of course, one can only write from one's own perspective, but Desalvo's perspective on asthma is so very different than that of so many asthma... more info

17. Melymbrosia: A Novel Melymbrosia: A Novel
from Cleis Press
Price: $16.95

Customer Review:
Woolf's first novel "Melymbrosia" was completed in 1912, but wasn't published until 1915 under the title "The Voyage Out". Louise DeSalvo has pieced together this first manuscript to offer the public a glimpse into the early creative mind of Woolf. Following the same basic plot as "The Voyage Out"... more info
