Summary: save your money
Review: This book put me too sleep...I thought this woman could write, but then again, I read Fear of Flying centuries ago. It's not clever, not interesting, not anything. I am returning it to Borders and getting a novel more worth my time.

Summary: Erica Jong is a brillent Writer!
Review: This is a FantAStic book. Erica Jong is such an important writer and it's so unfair that she has been so overlooked by many reviewers and readers. she is by far one of the best writers of her age

Summary: Very enjoyable
Review: Wow, I'm surprised some people graded the book so low. I must admit, I don't really know the history of Sappho, so I can't judge. I only know her poetry.Regardless, I find the book quite enjoyable. I've had the book for several months now but I only take it out when I'm in the mood. I feel somehow like Sappho is a dear friend, sent back in time. LOL. I like that in this book, she goes through much of what many women go through. I find the descriptiveness that Erica Jong puts in the book is very helpful in understanding the rich beauty of such an ancient time. However, I do agree with some that the descriptiveness can go overboard. There were a few times where a character would go into an unreasonably long lecture where I didn't think it fit in. Anyway, it's a great book. I've recommended it to all of my friends because of the sheer joy I find in it. I really think it is a great book for any woman, straight or bi who wants someone they can relate to.
