I had been meaning to answer your query, but got too busy.

Woman on the edge of time is by Marge Piercy - one of my favorite all time
feminist writers.  Her best books are probably Small Changes (One of the
major characters is a woman who is trying to get a Phd in CS at MIT in the
late 60's/early 70's) and Braided Lives(probably her most mature novel).

I just finished her newest book -- Fly Away Home.  I liked it but felt
that the anger in it was almost as overpowering as "The Woman's Room".
Don't remember who wrote "The Woman's Room" but it was very popular (and
sort of trashisized by the media)  a few years ago.

Another woman author you might like to try is Mary Gordon.

I have a large collection of books by women (all boxed right now).  I will
try to do a bibliography when I unbox them.
