    Quick & satisfying Romance Read...
  

*by J***Y on Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2014*

Enjoyed the history of doomed romance spattered in the pages (sort of a foreshadowing, setting the stage).  Meanwhile the thread of a contemporary, but not specifically lesbian (although it is) romance is woven through in romantic cities like paris, et. al.  Well written and I look forward to reading more of Jeanette's books in future--this was my first.Found a really fantastic Jeanette Winterson documentary (My Monster and Me) on YouTube which prompted me to order this book--it's mentioned in the documentary and it was fabulous to see Shakespeare & Co. with the lovely Sylvia Whitman, who supported Jeanette's career at a time when she needed it.  Good doc, good book--very happy with the time & money spent.  Well worth it if you are a writer.

    Winterson writing Winterson
  

*by K***A on Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2015*

Classic Jeanette Winterson from the turn of the millennium. Like Gut Symmetries and Art and Lies, The PowerBook is a cerebral fractured fairy tell. The love story is told through philosophical prose. Wintering uses the the Canon to her own ends. And I can't help but lose myself in her pitch perfect arrogant voice. She has the chops and uses them to reshape the reader's own reality.

    I never had erotic thoughts about tulips before this book...
  

*by E***S on Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2002*

Ms. Winterson does it again.A novel for the information age, just when we all thought computers would spell the death of literature!  This is a book to read..no savor...several times.  I loved it.Oh...and I look at tulips in a whole new way...
