This is a series of red-hot women''s writing after the "isms." lt focuses on new cultural assemblages that are emerging from the deformation, breakout, ebullience, and discomfort of postmodern feminism. The series brings together a post-foundational generation of women''s writing that, while still respectful of the idea of situated knowledge, does not rely on neat disciplinary distinctions and stable political coalitions.
Explorations in Contemporary Feminist Literature: The Battle Against Oppression for Writers of Color, Lesbian and Transgender Communities is a work that bridges issues of oppression across diverse communities within the contemporary feminist movement. Fictional writings by authors such as Toni Morrison, Maya Angelou, Rose Tremain, and others are addressed in regard to their content of social messages. The major focus of this book is the need for personal-redefinition by members of marginalized communities seeking a ground of self-determination and respect, as expressed by various authors. The connections between authors'' perspectives are rasied and a critical gaze is directed at the claim that personal choice equates with freedom.
