This book was purchased for a literature class I took at college. I will say that I would not have read this book for any other reason. I did laugh at some of the phrases and word choices throughout the story but, overall, the book was poorly put together. Jong's writing style is very similar to that of a young and hyperactive child. She randomly throws objects in to the book that serve no purpose. She also fails to follow any particular timeline and skips around to different times of her life. I am amazed that she was so bold in her writing. She was the first woman to write any kind of story that touched so boldly on a woman's sexuality as this book did. The ending left me hanging but I liked that the main character, Isadora, was able to fly.
Cult women's classic
