Feminist literature is fiction, nonfiction, drama or poetry which supports the feminist goals of defining, establishing and defending equal civil, political, economic and social rights for women. It often identifies women's roles as unequal to those of men – particularly as regards status, privilege and power – and generally portrays the consequences to women, men, families, communities and societies as undesirable.
In these seven stories selected by the critic August Nemo you can enjoy the first movements of feminist literature:
The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman
The Story of an Hour by Kate Chopin
The Fullness of Life by Edith Wharton
The Gentle Lena by Gertrude Stein
The History of England by Jane Austen
The Invisible Girl by Mary Shelley
The Marble Child by Edith Nesbit
