HUP honored with "oddest book title" nod

Macare When we wrote about this contest last year, never in our wildest dreams did we imagine that we would be honored with a nomination the very next year!! Hopes are high for an HUP win in the "oddest book title of the year" contest run each year by British publishing magazine The Bookseller, although Jasper McCutcheon's I Was Tortured by the Pygmy Love Queen has a few of us worried about our chances. We're nominated for Catharine MacKinnon's latest essay collection, titled Are Women Human? And Other International Dialogues. Maybe it's a little early to order the champagne, but one can always browse.

Finally, we'd be remiss if we didn't point out that Are Women Human? is of course a serious book dealing with serious issues--a critique of the transnational status quo that also envisions the transforming possibilities of human rights for women across the globe.
