Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

Women Who Read Are Dangerous. What a title! I don't mind admitting that I would have bought it for that alone. But once inside, I found it was my perfect book in other ways, too, containing as it does, a feast of beautiful paintings of women reading by artists such as Felix Vallotton, Edouard Vuillard, Henri Matisse and Duncan Grant, and a politely fiery text which serves to remind one that, in the not too dim and distant past, for a woman to be seen absorbed in a book was considered at best a selfish act and at worst a subversive one. So I grabbed it. Christmas shopping... For me! --Rachel Cook, The Observer, 29th November 2009

Reseña del editor:

A compelling selection of paintings, drawings, prints and photographs of women reading through the ages.
