Risking Difference revisions the dynamics of multicultural feminist
community by exploring the ways that identification creates
misrecognitions and misunderstandings between individuals and
within communities. Drawing on Lacanian psychoanalysis, Jean Wyatt
argues not only that individual psychic processes of identification
influence social dynamics, but also that social discourses of race,
class, and culture shape individual identifications. In addition to
examining fictional narratives by Margaret Atwood, Angela Carter,
Sandra Cisneros, Toni Morrison, and others, Wyatt also looks at
nonfictional accounts of cross-race relations by white feminists
and feminists of color.
