Publisher Description: "Chick Lit and Postfeminism" is a bold and fascinating exploration of the 'most culturally visible form of postfeminist fiction'--chick lit. Demanding and sometimes dizzying in its range and readings, the book moors the genre in the commodified context of women's lives in the twenty-first century, refashioning our understanding of this irreverent, ubiquitous, and (contrary to popular belief) important genre of fiction." --Mary Bly (Eloisa James), Fordham University, New York Times best-selling author |
