Book Synopsis Virginia Woolf, Jean Rhys, and the Aesthetics of Trauma by : P. Moran
Book excerpt: This is a study of modernism, sexuality, and subjectivity in the work of two leading women modernists. Each confronted the aspects of her culture and personal history that resulted in a degraded sense of female sexuality and explored how traumatic childhood sexual experiences informed their relationship to female corporeality and fiction-writing.
