The essays I did enjoy in this book were absolutely excellent! I only skipped one on Wuthering Heights (which I have not read yet), and I think there were only two or three that I felt not as captivated by. The essays on motherhood, reading and translation were my favourites - Siri Hustvedt is going to be a name I look out for now in essay collections!
