Read this years ago and remember thinking it was terribly boring!! I doubt I could make it through the book now.
Really Really good, unexpected. It is amazing that this book was written in the early 70s. Now I just wish I knew what happened after the ending!
I read a Danish translation of this book decades ago when I was still studying at the university and I loved it. I just got of of the boook in English, and I'm looking forward to re-read it again soon.
Strange how one generation's radical feminist novel can appear almost retro sexist to a later generation. Fear has some funny parts and some raunchy parts, but I'm not really the target audience and its not really to my taste.
Intelligent and well-written. I really felt like I was in the main character's head, though I didn't always agree with her actions.I wish there were more books in this vein and style today, instead of all the fluffy "chick lit" crap out there.
