Erica Jong's Response to the Modern Library List - Page 3

Jong's impression of the Modern Library list, to quote "surely I was not alone in noticing that only nine books written by women were among the designees. The list created controversy–as lists are meant to do."
Please read the source article on Jong's web site for an in-depth discussion of her rationale for her own list.
