“The movement for women's liberation was about an emotional transformation, an explosion, a feeling all over the country that things must be different, and ideas about how they should be. I think fiction can capture that kind of thing better than other genres because in fiction you can explore the feelings of your characters - the before and the after.” ThinkingShouldKindIdeasDifferentCountryCharacterFeelingsFictionMovementEmotionalTransformationLiberationGenreCaptureExplosions Author:Alix Kates Shulman
“I am not a psychological novelist, and I try very hard not to allow the reader to see the plight or circumstances of the characters as individual psychological plights. That's my preference; still, a lot of people do read my novels as psychological studies, and they're right to read them that way too, if that's what they mean to them.” PeopleIfsWayTryingMeanStillsHardCharacterIndividualNovelStudyReaderCircumstancesPsychologicalNovelistsPreferencePlight Author:Alix Kates Shulman
