Recenzii

In this wide-ranging transnational study of the ways in which women postcolonial writers have re-staged the relationship between image and identity, Karina Eileraas trains an exquisitely honed critical gaze on the creative forms of aesthetic and political resistance put into practice by such diverse authors as Assia Djebar, Hélène Cixous, and Theresa Hak Kyung Cha. Although her book is informed by the ideas of an impressive array of theorists, it is Eileraas's own engaging voice that, at every turn of the page, drives home the profoundly ethical dimensions of her project.
