``Love, Again'' by Doris Lessing (Harper Perennial; $13).
Jane Austen, pace George Eliot or Doris Lessing fans, remains the supreme feminist of fiction because her major female characters are always presented as moral agents, not as fortresses of virginity determining which males will be allowed to breach the gates nor as bluestockings preoccupied by the bees of idealism buzzing in their bonnets.
She quotes such skeptics as Iris Murdoch, Doris Lessing, Cynthia Ozick, and Camille Paglia, and accurately points out that most people are on the side of common sense.
