Beskrivning

What happens when two women love the same man? This is an examinatiopn of female rivalry as a distinctive theme in women's fiction and an analysis of the female-identified erotic triangle, where two women are rivals for the same man, as a narrative pattern which has a special resonance for inter-war women writers. Focusing on five key writers, Diana Wallace offers a reconsideration of inter-war women's writing and an examination of the links and rivalries between women writers themselves.
