No, Erica, it's not jealousy, nor anger because you write about your "self." It's disgust because you can't write. And the mixture of porn and low brow sentimentality you sell your readers reminds one of the Philistinism of our society. As the Boston Globe noted, concerning your preposterous attempt to write Shakespeare: "Serenissima" is not a novel but a fantasy, the fantasy of a limited talent trying, hopelessly, to imagine what it would be like to serve as muse to genius." Bingo.

She has no writing talent whatsoever. All she is is a highly promoted exhibitionist, who made a killing by telling tales out of school about her family and providing soft porn you could put on your bookshelf. I saw an interview with her in Milan, in which she said she was distressed because Americans did not consider her a great intellect, just a great sex goddess. Really, she is a great embarrassment.

We need more people like Erica Jong. She has courage, sensitivity and wisdom.

She is a typical self-promoting you-know-what. It's so sad to read her latest book (published in 2006) about the craft of writing. All the book does is promote her daughter's writing and let's the reader know over and over how important Jong is/was. And she's so ugly, except when she was 26. Downhill from there. Who'd want to have sex with her????

I love Erica Jong. And Fear of Flying is about so much more than sex!! It's so strange to me that the sex is all the public seems to focus on. But there you have it. And Erica rocks!
