Unabridged Chick
I'm Audra, a 30-something married lesbian. I love interesting heroines, gorgeous prose, place as character, and the occasional werewolf.
I'm an enormous Louise DeSalvo fangirl. For good and for bad, I think everything she says is golden. As such, her take on revenge as a motivation for some 20th century writers (well, four really) really resonated with me, being one who holds grudges and nurtures furious revenge fantasies. Fans of Virginia Woolf, D.H. Lawrence, Djuna Barnes, and Henry Miller should give this a read -- even if one disagrees with her conclusions, I think DeSalvo's look at their work(s) is interesting.
