Features a one page interview with Janet.
(In order, the series is comprised of, Two for the Dough, Three to Get Deadly , and Four to Score .) Most intriguing about Evanovich is that she is a rare breed of romance author who has left the genre and yet not alienated her many romance fans

She is a long-time reader of my column, but first came to my attention when I read Jayne Ann Krentz's Dangerous Men & Adventurous Women , which is a series of essays written by romance novelists about the genre
Support our sponsors In DMAW Kay is footnoted several times, and the impression I had was that she was a critic of the genre, albeit less staunch than some other scholars

Some Uses for Romance: Shakespeare's Cymbeline and Jonson's The ...
Andrew Stewart focuses on Cymbeline to argue that The New Inn The New Inn is a
positive, yet equivocal, response to the political climate extant in 1632.
The following essay acknowledges the thematic and tonal similarities between The New Inn and the romances, yet highlights a possible occasional, rather than tributary motive for Jonson's partial adoption of the sub-genre, his choice of material being influenced by the political climate in which he was writing as well as by a desire merely to emulate his sometime fellow playwright
