Drawing on Lacanian psychoanalysis, Jean Wyatt argues not only that individual psychic processes of identification influence social dynamics, but also that social discourses of race, class, and culture shape individual identifications. In addition to examining fictional narratives by Margaret Atwood, Angela Carter, Sandra Cisneros, Toni Morrison, and others, Wyatt also looks at nonfictional accounts of cross-race relations by white feminists and feminists of color."--Jacket OP - 286 CN - PS374.F45 W93 2004eb SN - 142373968X SN - 9781423739685 SN - 0791461289 SN - 9780791461280 SN - 0791461270 SN - 9780791461273 SN - 0791484882 SN - 9780791484883 KW - American fiction : Women authors : History and criticism.
