Study for Obedience by Sarah Bernstein. Closely written with so little joy I found unbearable. Especially
for so young a writer. Honestly I could only dip in and out besides looking at the list of references. Now in
my 91 y.ear and having read Woolf,Sontag and the rest I hope this writer will find that there are more things
in life than the glorifing of a life devoid of all real fun,enjoyment and human contact. Death comes soon
enough.
Obedience is NOT what women need for the rest of the twenty first century. If I have not
enjoyed this book
while others praise it,put it down to a long and mostly joyful life.
