She is widely regarded as one of the latter twentieth century's most significant writers. Both Heroes & Villains and The Passion of New Eve are abundantly and darkly imaginative novels which vividly explore themes of gender, violence, and the politics of power. Both in the original publisher's cloth binding. Externally, 'Passion of New Eve' very smart and 'Heroes & Villains' smart with just slight fading of spine's cloth and a very minor mark to cloth on the front board. A touch of bumping to tail of 'Passion of New Eve' spine and to head and tail of 'Heroes & Villains' spine and extremities. On 'Heroes & Villains' front first free endpaper, evidence of bookplate removal and a minor annotation. Internally, firmly bound with pages bright and clean; just a scattering of spots limited to the extreme fore edges of each. A faint, minor red mark on title page of 'Passion of New Eve&apos. Very Good Indeed . Ill.: None. Very Good Indeed .
