It's a short story collection from 1985, not in print anymore but looks pretty cheap used on Amazon US. As with any book of feminist fiction, quite a few of the stories deal with "political" issues such as reproductive rights and equality, but there are plenty that don't (if you're the type of person who doesn't like "issue" stories).

For this challenge, it was a cool way to sample lots of female authors (including Gwyneth Jones and Raccoona Sheldon/James Tiptree Jr) writing about women.
