Changing the Story: Feminist Fiction and the Tradition

Changing the Story: Feminist Fiction and the Tradition

Description

The feminist fiction movement of the 1960s–1980s was and is as significant a movement as Modernism. Gayle Greene focuses on the works of Doris Lessing, Margaret Drabble, Margaret Atwood, and Margaret Laurence to trace the roots of this feminist literary explosion. She also speculates on the future of feminist fiction in the current regressive period of "post feminism."
