"If the author is 'dead' and feminism is 'post', why does the figure of the woman author keep appearing as a character in contemporary fiction? This original study shows how much life is left in the woman author and how, for contemporary writers, she is a figure of rich narrative interest and is at the centre of political, aesthetic and ethical problems."--Jacket.
