Reviews

Anne Sokolsky has compiled an important collection that examines women's writing from a highly original point of view. The translations are wonderful. Scholars and general readers alike will welcome this publication.--Barbara Hartley, The University of Queensland Bold Breaks is a novel contribution to works on divorce in Japan and provides a great service to the field by including translations of writing by iconic and lesser-known Japanese women writers previously unavailable in English; all of the pieces are well-chosen to represent a variety of time periods, perspectives, and backgrounds. The book will make a great addition to syllabi for courses on Japanese or comparative literature, Japanese culture, and gender studies.--Julia Bullock, Emory University
