Marguerite Yourcenar.
(The Abyss, Memoirs of Hadrian)
OK she was an aristocratic lesbian so she had an unfair advantage, but hey...

sounds gay. read Wasp factory instead.

I did not enjoy it either, but I can’t call it shit because parts of it are memorable.

Good book, but Richard is hardly a protag worth praising.

What did he mean by this?

Why would a lesbian know more about men?

How is that relevant?

This. They don't understand what manliness is other than big muscles. They don't understand the fundamental values that makes a man a man.

SPOILERS

eh, you haven't lived, have you?

Solid refutation. Loved that book.

See.

>They don't understand the fundamental values that makes a man a man.
And what, pray tell, is the universal consensus on what these values are?

Manly virtues include honor, loyalty, bravery, etc. This is one of the reasons that men enjoy movies and history about war much more.

Isn't Frankenstein a special case, considering the involvement of Percy Shelley?

I agree though. I've only read The Professor's House, but I thought it was fantastic. It's been a while so I don't remember if the narration is first or third person, but anyway, the male characters were good I thought. She and Flannery O'Connor are the only female authors I've really enjoyed. I guess I should read

FPBP

The extent of his involvement was getting his ass kicked in a spooky story competition among friends.

>male narrators written by women
I want more of these, preferably by women before this century.
