Writing: a Woman's Business - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

A collection of essays bringing together views from women who make literature their "business". Taken as a whole, the essays form a dialogue between authors, editors, critics and teachers of literature, thus illuminating the debate about women, writing and the market-place. The book examines some of the difficulties that women experience in trying to write themselves into a culture which in critical and commercial terms has been largely dominated by men. Through its focus on the commercial and professional dimensions of women's writing, the volume reflects a shift in the current critical climate away from the idea of women as marginal to the publishing industry and towards a celebration of their success.
