“The guys won’t listen to chick lit, but the women will listen to what guys are interested in, like biography and action,” Ms. Zeiher said. Not that women are pushovers.
“I think women’s interest in literature is broader than men’s,” she said. “We can handle their stuff better than they can handle ours. That sounds terrible, doesn’t it?”
