In this enjoyable and insightful book, Yi-Lin Yu takes the heated
and ongoing feminist debate over motherhood and maternal
subjectivity onto a new plane - in search of a new synthesis. With
its specific focus on the three-tiered matrilineal narratives,
Mother, She Wrote is distinguished by its complex and innovative
deployment of psychoanalytic subject-relations theories, and a
meticulous and detailed discussion of various literary texts, which
calls forth a powerful reformulation of these narratives. One of
the main strengths of this book is this simultaneous and tactful
command of theory and literary practice. Apart from advocating the
burgeoning development of women's writing of matrilineal
narratives, the author also sheds new light on further research in
the area of feminist motherhood and mothering.
