About the Author:
Leslie Gilbert Elman is a New York based writer, editor, and frustrated Jeopardy contestant. She is a regular contributor to Islands and Healing Lifestyles and Spas magazines.
From Publishers Weekly:
Picking up where Alicia Alvrez’s The Ladies’ Room Reader Revisited left off, Elman, a "frustrated Jeopardy contestant," socks readers with 100 10-question quizzes on all things related to women. The topics, which range from "Shakespeare’s Women" to "Swingin’ Girls of Song," test the trivia knowledge of aficionados of art, current events, history, movies, music, popular culture and science. Elman mixes up the quiz format, from matching (e.g., match the female patron saint with her area of expertise) to multiple choice (e.g., was Frances Gumm an a. actress, b. chemist, or c. confectioner?) to true or false ("There is only one type of orgasm"—true or false?). Perfect for a long car trip, beach reading or, well, the ladies’ room, this is an educational and entertaining way to pass time.
