In this collection Joan Aiken takes us to a future where sunlight never filters through; Madame Blavatsky takes us into the past when a young man experiments with the occult; E. Nesbit takes us to a more romantic past where death waits for t h e unwary in a summerhouse, and Jane Roberts tells of a reincarnation that is more like possession. The vigor and originality of the women writers represented in this collection point up the humor in their designation as 'the gentle sex'.
