| Four stars because I felt it fell just short of Stephen King's book on writing; let's call it four-point-five stars. I have no time to write a proper review because reading this has got me rewriting in my head everything I have ever written. | |

“When women understand that governments and religions are human inventions; that Bibles, prayer-books, catechisms, and encyclical letters are all emanations from the brains of man, they will no longer be oppressed by the injunctions that come to them with the divine authority of *Thus sayeth the Lord.*”
