"Lenski received no help with household chores from her new husband"

Is it really necessary to libel her husband with such a sweeping statement? How does the author of the article know this? For this to be factually true, the husband must not have (for instance) carried his dish to the sink even once. --Kerry (talk) 15:30, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I also found this line problematic. Without a clear reference, it seems like Original Research. And as the primary contributor has not modified it or replied here in two years, I have removed it. Boneyard90 (talk) 10:39, 15 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

We provide Ext links for those two. The latter refers to four other "Lois Lenski Collections". Here I have fixed two of the three broken links; the other (ISU) may be a correct address for restricted material.

Update/Expansion in progress

I'm working on expanding this piece (started out trying to fix problematic citation in previous version and got carried away). I plan on adding sections on Lenski's literary approach and on critical reception. Womump (talk) 07:36, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
