Fellow Rebels: Annie Dillard and Maxine Hong Kingston (Reclaiming the Canon).

Bischoff, Joan

English Journal, v78 n8 p62-67 Dec 1989

Discusses a pair of books (Annie Dillard's "An American Childhood" and Maxine Hong Kingston's "The Woman Warrior: Memoirs of a Girlhood among Ghosts") that are well-written, discussion-worthy, and sufficiently alike in content that they can be taught in tandem for comparative purposes as part of a contemporary-literature unit.
