Matricentric Narratives: Recent British Women's Fiction in a Postmodern Mode (Women's Studies)

No Customer Reviews

The first three chapters of this text explore representative works of British women authors from the 1950s to the present, and further chapters go on to look at how women's writing is historically produced, through social conditions and economic forces. It covers such topics as: matricentric works and material interaction; feminist criticisms that problematize the matricentric and vice versa; and positive psychoanalytic discourse on female development. Writers examined include Maureen Duffy, Wendy Perriam, Pat Barker, Elizabeth North, Sara Maitland and Margaret Drabble.
