The I Index

Catherine Taylor,
The Guardian (UK)
Ellmann’s polemic is a medley: a wickedly funny, rousing, depressing, caps-driven work of linguistic gymnastics hellbent on upbraiding the deleterious forces of the prevailing misogyny, focused especially on the US.
Jessica Loudis,
The Times Literary Supplement (UK)
... caustic, clever, occasionally exhausting and frequently funny.
Baya Simons,
Financial Times (UK)
... 14 witty, provocative, but often passé essays.
Uddalak Mukherjee,
The Telegraph (IND)
... witty and refreshingly acid-tongued.

Publishers Weekly
In this offbeat essay collection, novelist Ellmann...addresses complex systemic ills alongside petty grievances in an acerbic and hilarious litany of complaints.
