Contemporary Feminist Fiction in Spain: The Work of Montserrat Roig and Rosa Montero: New Directions in European Writing

Autor Catherine Davies
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 dec 1994
In this timely new study, Catherine Davies provides a critical analysis of post-Franco Spain's most successful women novelists. Delving first into the development of feminism and women's writing and its critical reception in Spain since 1970, the author then focuses on two of the most popular and influential feminist novelists: Barcelona's Montserrat Roig (1946-1991) and Madrid's Rosa Montero (b. 1951). These writers' works share woman-centered themes such as family relationships, the search for self-fulfillment in a restrictive society, and the hope for the construction of a new world order. Catherine Davies provides a critical analysis of their complete oeuvre and a fascinating overview of contemporary women's writing in Spain.

Davies's style is clear and her research meticulous throughout. The book would be a valuable addition to any library collection.'MLR'...in addressing both the academic specialist and those interested in women's writing with no knowledge of Spanish or Catalon, the author strikes a successful balance between the two...the volume represents a significant contribution to the study of feminist fiction in Spain today.'Patricia Roberts, Middlesex University' ...excellent... this is an admirable s
