Erased from history: Too many women writers are left to languish in moldy archives. [View all]

This article made me happy that these authors are finally getting the audience they always deserved, and sad at the same time. It made me recall those who tend to only read male authors and their defense is often that it just happens to be their taste, or they think men just happen to be more talented. Funny how it just works out that way. I'm going to add these books to my list.
