This book examines the relationship between words and images in
various life-writing works produced by nineteenth to twenty-first
century American and British women. It addresses the politics of
images in women's life writing, contending that the presence or
absence of images is often strategic. Including a range of
different forms of life writing, chapters draw on traditional
(auto)biographies, travel narratives, memoirs, diaries,
autofiction, cancer narratives, graphic memoirs, artistic
installations, quilts and online performances, as life writing
moves from page to screen and other media. The book explores a wide
range of women who have crossed the boundary between text and
image: painters who have become writers, novelists who have become
painters, writers who hesitate between images and words, models who
seize the camera, and artists who use the frame as a page.
