#HappyWomensDay!๐ Let us celebrate women's literature and history today and every day!๐๐ --- In college, in my "The Norton Anthology Of Literature By Women," I treasured a beautiful tapestry of many women writers' works, poems, essays, letters, or excerpts of works. I loved Anne Bradstreet's poetry, Abigail Adams' letters (especially "Remember the Ladies"), Phillis Wheatley's poetry, Sojourner Truth's courageous story & speeches (especially "Ain't I a Woman?"), & Elizabeth Barrett Browning's poetry. I treasured Harriet Beecher Stowe's courage, Harriet Jacobs' story of resilience while escaping slavery, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, & Florence Nightingale. And I enjoyed Charlotte Bronte, George Elliot (her pen name), Emily Bronte, & Emily Dickinson. My favorite was Alice Walker's "In Search of Our Mother's Gardens." I, also, read Virginia Wolf's "A Room of One's Own" and many more authors, poets, & writers who broadened my literary horizons. I definitely recommend this book that covers a multitude of women writers and writing styles from past eras to the recent Modern Era (20th century).๐ ๐ท(Copyright of my #bookreview & photo: #Inknscroll)๐ (In college, I read most of these two anthologies.
