Women's Fiction
As the hit television show Desperate Housewives continues
to seduce viewers with its outrageous humor, absorbing
mysteries, and deliciously naughty images of suburbia, this
collection of essays examines the program's appeal and why
it has struck a chord with modern women. Critics, including
bestselling chick-lit authors Beth Kendrick, Julie
Kenner, and Shanna Swendson, address key areas
in essays such as "Why American Heroines are Best When
They're Bad," "The Everywoman in an Apron," "Edie Brit as
Queer Critique" and "The Rebirth of Irony." Not a typical
fan guide, the essays deeply explore the show, answering
the question on everyone's mind: Just what is it about this
show that has America so enthralled?
