Through readings of an array of recent texts literary and popular,
fictional and autofictional, realist and experimental this book
maps out a contemporary, Western, shame culture. It unpicks the
complex triangulation of shame, gender and writing, and intervenes
forcefully in feminist and queer debates of the last three decades.
Starting from the premise that shame cannot be overcome or
abandoned, and that femininity and shame are utterly and
necessarily imbricated, Writing Shame examines writing that
explores and inhabits this state of shame, considering the
dissonant effects of such explorations on and beyond the page.
