This willful focus on the personal is underscored by \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Thirty Ways of Looking at Hillary,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d an intriguing but highly uneven anthology of reflections about Mrs. Clinton by a spectrum of well-known female writers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><\/span><br \/>Michiko criticizes the book by noting that in these authors&#8217; essays, Hillary&#8217;s actual r\u00c3\u00a9sum\u00c3\u00a9 and record are largely shoved to the side.  I&#8217;m still reading the book, so not yet weighing in on that one, but it&#8217;s an interesting point (and one I keep blogging about here).  A few of the contributors submitted comments for the Hillary forum I&#8217;ve put together for More magazine (going live soon!), and I&#8217;m attending a lunch soon in celebration of the book.
