This collection of essays offers global perspectives on feminist
utopia and dystopia in speculative literature, film, and art,
working from a range of intersectional approaches to examine key
works and genres in both their specific cultural context and a
wider, global, epistemological, critical background. The
international, diverse contributions, including a Foreword by
Gregory Claeys, draw upon posthumanism, speculative realism,
speculative feminism, object-oriented ontology, new materialisms,
and post-Anthropocene studies to propose alternative perspectives
on gender, environment, as well as alternate futures and pasts
rendered in fiction. Instead of binary divisions into utopia vs
dystopia, the collection explores genres transcending this
dichotomy, scrutinising the oeuvre of both established and emerging
writers, directors, and critics. This is a rich and unique
collection suitable for scholars and students studying feminist
literature, media cultural studies, and women’s and gender
studies.

This collection of essays on Graham Swift's fiction brings together
the perspectives of renowned Swift scholars from around the world.
Authors look at the swift's oeuvre from different interpretative
angles, combining a variety of critical and theoretical approaches.
This book covers all of Swift's fiction, including his novels and
short stories; special emphasis, however, is on his most recent
books. By approaching Swift's work from a number of perspectives,
the volume offers a synthetic overview of his literary output. In
particular, it searches for thematic and formal continuities
between his early and more recent fiction, and attempts to
emphasize its new developments and interests.
