If "Finnegans Wake" was my heavy bathroom reading, this was my light. I almost tossed it when I had to move, but how could i lose a book which started with "Romance . . . is rape embellished with meaningful looks" (a quote from Andrea Dworkin, whose best known work i tried without success to get translated into Japanese for she is an excellent writer even if hate for all men is sick) and taught me about Uncumber's Day (a woman who made herself ugly to avoid marrying a King -- the same, by the way, is found in Chinese history). Call it satire if you want, but this book is the single best criticism I know of the excesses of feminism, and inditement of the victimization of the male, mostly in the USA. (I hate to say it, but I would bet that had any woman published half the books I did over the past three years, chances are she would have received much, much more attention than I have.)
