If the author is 'dead', if feminism is 'post-', why does the
figure of the woman author keep appearing as a central character in
contemporary fiction? She is concerned with ownership but, equally,
with loss; determined to enter the cultural field but also
rejecting that field; looking for control but subject to duplicity;
seeking power alongside desire. Drawing on a diverse range of
contemporary authors - including Atwood, Byatt, Brookner, Coetzee,
Lurie, LeGuin, Michele Roberts, Shields, Spark, Weldon, and Walker
- this study explores the complexity and continuing fascination of
this figure.
