Mid-Century Women Writers - Page 2

The mid-20th century period is full of women writers! For this list, I've included books published between the years 1935-1975, all written by women in a wide variety of genres, including children's literature. Some of these writers were near the end of their careers, some were in their prime, and some were just getting started.
