From Australia with love

by Juliet Flesch · 2004

+ Want to read

"From Australia with Love takes a fresh look at these novels from the point of view of those who read and those who write them. Juliet Flesch takes on the journalists, literary critics and feminists who so freely denigrate romance novels and, in doing so, she lifts the veil of vitriolic criticism that shrouds these books."—BOOK JACKET.
