My library theoretically has the entire Key to Time series, but the catalogue lies a bit. I need to poke and see if they have the second one so I can get through the rest of them...
Possibly--though not thinking that's a bad thing! :)

I don't recall everyone being worked up to a lather over sexism when I was in college, though--some profs, but not all (we still had the Freudians making everything phallic, because you know, it's ALL about sex), so maybe I managed to avoid it?
I didn't have a bunch of profs who were big on feminism (although we had them at my school; I just never took any of the Women's & Gender Studies classes), but the poet Eavan Boland played a large role in my English education. If you haven't read her, check her out--she's an amazing Irish poet, but very into issues particular to female Irish writers. She has great, great stuff, but there were points where I was like, "I know, you're a woman and a writer and women writers in Ireland have been oppressed and objectified in the past. I GET IT." And of course some of the criticism is *eyeroll*-worthy.
I'm looking forward to starting A Passage to India. It's one of the purchases I made at the used bookstore a few weeks ago, though, so it keeps getting pushed back for the library books which have to go back...
