I cross posted this in the lounge to little effect.

I love her books and have always wanted to see her speak. She will be here at the Univ. tomorrow night, for free.

2. I've only read The Woman Warrior...

I found it to be quite powerful and I liked the style. What else would you recommend by her?

3. Tripmaster Monkey is fun ( a 60s romp through SF)

I also think she wrote one about her experience losing all her possessions and writings in one of the SF fires a few years ago.

Sorry to reply so late, I forgot about this post!

:hi:

alas, I wasn't able to see her speak due to other commitments... :(
