Collaborative writing is not a new phenomenon, nor is it
specific to a particular genre of writing. In "Rethinking Women's
Collaborative Writing," Lorraine York presents an eminently
readable study of the history of collaborative writing and common
critical reactions to it. From Early Modern playwrights and poets
to nineteenth-century novelists to contemporary writers and
literary critics, York's survey focuses on women's collaborative
writing in order to expose the long-standing prejudice against this
form and to encourage readings of these works that take into
account the personalities of the collaborators and the power
dynamics of their authorial relationships.
York explores collaborative writing from women in Britain, the
United States, Italy and France, illuminating the tensions in the
collaborative process that grow out of important cultural, racial,
and sexual differences between the authors. Current scholarship on
collaborative writing is growing and "Rethinking Women's
Collaborative Writing" presents a strong, thoughtful addition to
the literature in the field.
