The 1990s witnessed an explosion in women's writing in France, with
a particularly exciting new generation of writer's coming to the
fore, such as Christine Angot, Marie Darrieussecq and Regine
Detambel. Other authors such as Paule Constant, Sylvie Germain,
Marie Redonnet and Leila Sebbar, who had begun publishing in the
1980s, claimed their mainstream status in the 1990s with new texts.
The book provides an up-to-date introduction to an analysis of new
women's writing in contemporary France, including both new writers
of the 1990s and their more established counter-parts. The editors'
incisive introduction situates these authors and their texts at the
centre of the current trends and issues concerning French literary
production today, whilst fifteen original essays focus on
individual writers. The volume includes specialist bibliographies
on each writer, incorporating English translations, major
interviews, and key critical studies. Quotations are given in both
French and English throughout. An invaluable study resource, this
book is written in a clear and accessible style and will be of
interest to the general reader as well as to students of all
levels, to teachers of a wide range of courses on French culture,
and to specialist researchers of French and Francophone literature.
