About this ebook
Centrado en las obras de Kate Chopin, Elizabeth Madox Roberts, Zora Neale Hurston, Lillian Smith, Eudora Welty, Alice Walker, Lee Smith, Jill McCorkle y Bobbie Ann Mason, este libro analiza el retrato ambivalente del espacio doméstico descrito por las escritoras sureñas. Las cuestiones más profundas de género, raza y clase en una sociedad tradicional como la del Sur americano se manifiestan precisamente en la esfera doméstica, donde el espacio es a menudo un medio crucial de dominación. Las escritoras sureñas contemporáneas con frecuencia han utilizado la transformación del hogar y sus significados como una nueva fuente para la ficción sureña. Han estado explorando formas nuevas y antiguas de imaginar lo que podría ser un hogar y su narrativa dice mucho de la manera en la que el trabajo, los lugares y la familia contribuyen a la creación de otro en el Sur contemporáneo.
