Forty years after their first groundbreaking work of feminist
literary theory, The Madwoman in the Attic, award-winning
collaborators Sandra M. Gilbert and Susan Gubar map the literary
history of feminism's second wave. In Still Mad, they offer lively
readings of major works by such writers as Sylvia Plath, Lorraine
Hansberry, Adrienne Rich, Ursula K. Le Guin, Maxine Hong Kingston,
Gloria Anzaldua and Toni Morrison. To address shifting social
attitudes over seven decades, they discuss polemics by thinkers
from Kate Millett and Susan Sontag to Audre Lorde, Andrea Dworkin
and Judith Butler. As Gilbert and Gubar chart feminist
gains-including creative new forms of protests and changing
attitudes toward gender and sexuality-they show how the legacies of
second wave feminists, and the misogynistic culture they fought,
extend to the present. In doing so, they celebrate the diversity
and urgency of women who have turned passionate rage into powerful
writing.
