Women Writers (Mostly) - "Writers as Readers: A Celebration of Virago Modern Classics" - Page 16

This must be what it's like to be in a publishing meeting at Virago Press, and the blast of cultural capital you'd get hit with there.
"Writers As Readers: A Celebration Of Virago Modern Classics" is an anthology of 40 introductions written by VIPs for 40 reprints in the Virago Modern Classics range. A staggering number of authors, books, and cultural figures get mentioned in this book, so naturally I decided to make a list challenge. There's everything in here from Shakespeare to the Spice Girls.
Wherever possible, I have tried to use Virago editions. (And the old covers were nicer!)
