Reviews
Passionately and research-intensively ... tells the story of this album and interweaves this with feminism and various pop culture discourses ... Great reading for music maniacs who like music literature with a complex reference to reality. * Ox-Fanzine: Magazine for Rock'n'Roll (translated) *
An insightful and necessary exploration of an underrated band and album. * Largehearted Boy *
If [your local bookstore] doesn't have [Babes in Toyland's Fontanelle], do your town a favor and have them order it. * Zoetic Press *
