I fell in love with Tepper's Beauty while reading the opening in a used bookstore in Itaewon, South Korea. And then I took it back to my apartment and read it, gradually getting more and more bewildered and disappointed by it. I still want the book I thought it was going to be.
(Though as I get older, I grow more tolerant of the type of feminist book like this and Handmaid's Tale and suchlike that, when younger, I had insufficient societal awareness to realise that no, these authors aren't overreacting.)
