_ _ The article says
I note here that IMO it's appropriate to write stubs based on very light original research, i.e., documenting what you've heard or what you (think you) learned by reading (or reading within), e.g., the novel in question.
_ _ That said, the phrase above asserts that:
While the book is certainly relevant to feminist history, it is neither obvious nor in evidence that it "knows about" its potential for relevance; as to controversy, i agree that it obviously was but think the evidence weighs on the side of continuing controversy.
_ _ For the moment and pending possible verification of parts of the old language (especially if she used the words "feminism" or "feminist" in the first edition, or was the first to make the connection to feminism outside its covers), i'm substituting
(which seems pretty likely, but could still use verification).

To improve the article, it might be a good idea to explain the significance of the title. Dzint.dzilna ( talk) 19:19, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
The expression "Fear of Flying" has been explained in this article as being both literally due to having to be airborne with inappropriate companions, and of having to become independent and self-inventive rather than dependent on past memories. Macrocompassion ( talk) 10:11, 8 February 2020 (UTC)
It might be a good idea for someone who has read it to give a plot summary 75.99.42.117 ( talk) 13:56, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
The article says, "Despite Jong's claims to the contrary, Isadora Wing's origins in fact may be more than a sum of autobiographical elements." What exactly is "the contrary"? Did Jong claim that Isadora Wing's origins are less than or equal to a sum of autobiographical elements? That's what the sentence suggests. Wegesrand ( talk) 22:19, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

It should be noted that Wing's destination is not Germany, as Vienna is the capitol of Austria. Her and Goodlove spend time by Austrian, not German, pools. Kittycat79 ( talk) 16:26, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
