”Jag är en dålig brevskriverska!” utbrister Agnes von Krusenstjerna i ett brev till en väninna 1935. Men hennes brev säger något annat. De berättar om ett dramatiskt skrivarliv under en omvälvande tid.Agnes von Krusenstjerna (1894–1940) var på många sätt motsatsernas författare. Fylld av skrivglädje samtidigt som hon ibland drabbades av depressioner så svåra att hon måste vårdas på mentalsjukhus. Noggrann med litterär kvalitet men angelägen om att nå ut brett. Hon orsakade succé och skandal med sina romanserier om Tony, fröknarna von Pahlen och Fattigadel. Hon vågade skriva öppet om sexualiteten, kärleken och svårigheten att leva tillsammans.I Och jag vet att jag är genial. Agnes von Krusenstjernas brev 1903–1940 har litteraturforskaren Anna Williams samlat ett par hundra brev från större delen av Krusenstjernas liv. Breven ger en inblick i hennes vardagsliv, men också en bild av hennes självförståelse och författaridentitet, särskilt när frågor om konstens frihet ställdes på sin spets.Agnes von Krusenstjerna beslutade sig tidigt för att satsa på författaryrket, och försörjningen var ett bekymmer, vilket korrespondensen med föräldrar, förlag och kolleger vittnar om. I breven till maken David Sprengel blir också hennes sjukdom märkbar.Under hennes aktiva år infördes den allmänna rösträtten i Sverige, ett världskrig ägde rum och ett annat inleddes. Arbetarlitteraturen blomstrade och modernismens författare slog igenom. Tidsandan sätter spår i breven, men framför allt belyser de Agnes von Krusenstjernas egen livshistoria, fylld av litterär dramatik, skaparlust, sorg och sjukdom.

(Softcover Edition)This book is about the 9 1/2 weeks I spent traveling through Mongolia, by horse and by hitchhiking, in the summer of 1993.This was a few months after the withdrawal of Communist control from the former Soviet Union. I was eighteen years old. There was no email, and no Internet we now know it. I could not contact my parents or my family for two months, and they had no way to know whether I was alive or dead. I was alone but never alone, as I was accompanied by Mongolian friends and voluntary caretakers almost anywhere I went - and whether I liked it or not.The book is comprised of slightly edited versions of the journal I kept, and the letters I wrote, at that time. It is meant to communicate what everyday life in Mongolia was like, through the eyes of a lone American teenager.

Lotten von Kraemer (1828–1912) levde ett märkvärdigt liv i litteraturens tjänst. Hon var en välbeställd ogift kvinna under det patriarkala 1800-talssamhällets slut som intresserade sig för tidens frågor och engagerade sig djupt i kvinnosaken. Det fick också konsekvenser för hennes privatliv. Genom hennes testamente grundades Samfundet De Nio, där varannan ledamot ska vara kvinna och vars uppgift är att främja den svenska skönlitteraturen. Anna Williams presenterar här ett stycke hittills okänd kvinnohistoria.

Hur ser bilden av den kvinnliga författaren egentligen ut i våra litteraturhistoriska översiktsverk? Om det handlar denna bok, och svaret finner man genom att undersöka utrymme, ordval och inte minst tystnad. Fram träder en bild av den kvinnliga författaren som en anomali, förpassad till litteraturhistoriens marginal. Hennes särart betonas ständigt och i de allmänna handböckerna hamnar hennes texter vid sidan om de viktiga litterära strömningarna - också i vår egen samtid.
