About this book series
This monograph series aims to showcase late twentieth and twenty-first century work of contemporary women, trans and non-binary writers in literary criticism. The 'women' in our title advocates for work specifically on women’s writing in a world of cultural and critical production that can still too easily slide into patriarchal criteria for what constitutes ‘worthy’ literature. This vision for the series is avowedly feminist although we do not require submissions to identify as such and we actively encourage submissions that engage directly with different definitions of ‘feminism’. Our series makes the claim for a continuing imperative to promote work by women authors; it remains essential for our field to make space for this body of literary criticism. Further, our series makes a claim that serious inquiry on late twentieth and twenty-first century women’s writing contributes to a necessary, emerging and exciting research area in literary studies.
