And JK and her girly boys

Here's the best first person narrative I've read.

I put off reading pic relaed for a long time because I was reluctant to read a book about a man but I'm glad I finally read it. His wife and the wife of his predecessor are fully realized characters and very empathetic. I mostly skipped over the male parts but there were some hidden gems in there

re there any analysis's of this book which show what is and isn't actually Hadrian's?

State, Local and federal Houses, senates and governorships under GOP control continue to undermine the small advances in women's rights. INCLUDING the voting rights that effect the young and minority communities.
Only recently have they started to shine a little light on the culture rapist protection in the military, but not much has been done outside those circles.

"SJW" "Social justice"? How about American rights? Shove it.

Mostly agree. I wish for something more substantial to happen, but I'm thankful enough for baby-steps. I don't mind the label though.

I haven't come across any of interest. Aside from pic related and a book about Sappho by a Lawrence Durrell, which I do not have.
In Cold Blood?

Oh! I have this in the wrong folder. Thanks for the mention. Now I want it even more.

I started with Woolf's Dalloway. Been looking for The Waves (and Beauvoir. Guess I'll have to order that one)
