![]() ![]() Bettie Sharpe’s Ember (“a clever, flinty subversion of the Cinderella story fantasy/fairy-tale”).Mary Robinette Kowal’s Shades of Milk and Honey. ![]() Sarah Waters’ Tipping The Velvet (“which is more usually classified as lit-fic, though the romance thread is strong”).Impossible (“though it’s been a while since I read that one, so memory may be glossing over less feminist elements”) Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre (“though we could have great arguments about that one”).I did not have the space to include those titles in The Atlantic piece so here they are now: I asked everyone I interviewed what they would recommend for a feminist coming to romance for the first time. I wrote a post at The Atlantic‘s Sexes blog today about the intersection of the romance genre and feminism. ![]()
