ellenkushner: (TPOTS SmallBeerPress (Clouet))
[personal profile] ellenkushner
My friend Tempest is a sneaky little devil.  She wrote this gorgeous, thoughtful post about TPOTS and didn't even tell me.  It's part of an essay (yes, I know we say "blogposts" now, but it is an essay) called Portrayals of Rape in Fiction: An Exploration of Where It’s Done Wrong or Right and Why - and if you haven't read the book, it's spoiler-o-rama.  But if you have read The Privilege of the Sword, and are interested in this aspect, you might like to see it, and to join the discussion there.

Sorry if these posts seem more like little press releases, and if I'm not answering all your comments.  I do read with glee.  My new Bordertown story is finally beginning to fall beneath my repeated merciless assaults.  But, phew!  I hope the next one's not like this.....!

That's an interesting article: thank you. (I don't agree with her on Life, because, as an academic myself there are aspects to how that played out that are all too real and need flagging up, at least in the UK, but I see why she thinks as she does.)
