Ten of the best men writing as women in literature

At the Guardian, John Mullan named a list of ten of the best men writing as women in literature.

Mullan has previously commented more extensively on Never Let Me Go.

Never Let Me Go is one of the (London) Times 100 best books of the last decade.
