The title of McCarthy's autobiography of her early political, social, and writing life, Intellectual Memoirs, provides insight into the type of writing found here. This slim volume, which is her final work before her death in 1989, reads much like a report. As someone with a strong interest in women's studies and memoirs, I wanted to enjoy this more, but only found myself engaged near the end (I know many critics would disagree with me). This book is primarily recommended for its significance to women's history and literature.
