An interesting article about ‘Stripped’, an anthology I have work in – but I can’t tell you what till the authors are matched to their pieces next year! It starts with a straightforward (and gratifyingly positive) review of ‘Stripped’, then includes tables of which gender Zin thinks each piece is by, plus the results of two gender analysis websites – quite mixed findings, and I can’t really comment on them further than to say some are a surprise! - http://sloopie72.wordpress.com/2012/07/08/sunday-with-zin-stripped-edited-by-nicole-monaghan-ps-books-2011/
