By Hayden Carruth
The problem of the female writer is not the simple, open-and-shut (shall we say?) struggle with males that it was once made out to be.  Why, for instance, at any literary cocktail party you attend, is it always the sweetly murderous voice of a female that rises to impugn the intelligence, motives, and ancestry of Simone de Beauvoir?  Or of Mary McCarthy, Denise Levertov, or any of half a dozen others?  Obviously, the pressures on them are multiplex.
