Description

"This book addresses the reception of realist texts by contemporary women writers inherited from theories of social constructionism. Offering close readings of well-known British realist writers such as Pat Barker, A. S. Byatt, and Rose Tremain as well as of emerging millennial writers such as Sarah Hall and Zadie Smith, it redresses negative assumptions about realism's alleged conservatism and normativity and uses the new directions of material and posthuman feminism to demonstrate the resurgence of realist writing in contemporary women's writing."--
