Word of Mouth

Word of Mouth

Patricia Moran
0/5 ( ratings)
Word of Mouth focuses on the two most prominent women in British modernism, Virginia Woolf and Katherine Mansfield. Both wrote with an extraordinary and sometimes celebratory self consciousness about their status as women writers. At odds with their explicit privileging of female difference, however, are pattens of imagery that demonstrate self-revulsion and self-hatred, the woman writer's rejection of herself. Patricia Moran points out that strategies of resistance and challenge are also strategies of repudiation and revulsion directed at female embodiment.
