Förlagets beskrivning
'Beer offers an assemblage of discrete essays ( written in the spirit of
the short story itself), connected by generic and thematic concerns, with the
delightful result of giving us a series of lucidly written close readings from
the perspective of what Virginia Woolf calls 'the common reader' - Katherine
Joslin, Western Michigan University A wide range of short fiction by Kate
Chopin, Edith Wharton and Charlotte Perkins Gilman is the focus for this study,
examining both genre and theme. Chopin's short short stories, Wharton's
novellas, Chopin's frankly erotic writing and the homilies in which Gilman
warns of the dangers of the sexually transmitted disease are compared. There
are also essays on ethnicity in the work of Chopin, Wharton's New England
stories, Gilman's innovative use of genre and 'The Yellow Wallpaper' on
film. A comparative study of the short fiction of American women writers Kate
Chopin, Edith Wharton and Charlotte Perkins Gilman which examines both genre
and theme and includes essays on ethnicity in the work of Chopin, Wharton's New
England stories, Gilman's innovative use of genre and 'The Yellow Wallpaper' on
film.
