Trade Review"They’ve done it again! The personal, the political, the literary, the critical—the brilliant literary team of Gilbert and Gubar extend their foundational studies of women’s writing to encompass the twenty-first century. Tracing the key events and writers of the second wave of the women’s movement from the 1950s to the election of Biden and Harris, they map the tumultuous, explosive, and ongoing energies of American women’s writing. Make space on your bookshelf for this lively and indispensable volume." -- Elaine Showalter, professor emerita of English, Princeton University

Still Mad is clever, playful and full of memorable turns of phrase… and its combination of ideas, clear prose and enthralling stories will make it an important text not only for literary scholars and historians but also for the general reader." -- Martha Rampton - Literary Review
