The Cambridge Introduction to Jean Rhys (Hardcover)

$181.98

Since her death in 1979, Jean Rhys`s reputation as an important modernist author has grown. Her finely crafted prose fiction lends itself to multiple interpretations from radically different critical perspectives; formalism, feminism, and postcolonial studies among them. This Introduction offers a reliable and stimulating account of her life, work, contexts and critical reception. Her masterpiece, Wide Sargasso Sea, is analyzed together with her other novels, including Quartet and After Leaving Mr Mackenzie, and her short stories. Through close readings of the works, Elaine Savory reveals their common themes and connects these to different critical approaches. The book maps Rhys`s fictional use of the actual geography of Paris, London and the Caribbean, showing how key understanding her relationships with the metropolitan and colonial spheres is to reading her texts. In this invaluable introduction for students, Savory explains the significance of Rhys as a writer both in her lifetime and today.

Jean Rhys and the Novel as Womens Text

$63.73

Is a womans writing different from a mans? Many scholars and readers think so, even thought here has been little examination of the way womens novels enact the theories that women theorists have posited. In Jean Rhys and the Novel as Womens Text, Nancy Harrison makes an important contribution to the exchange of ideas on the writing practice of women and to the scholarship on Jean Rhys. Harrison determines what the form of a wellmade womens novel discloses about the conditions of womens communication and the literary production that emerges from them. Devoting the first part of her book to theory and general commentary on Rhyss approach to writing, she then offers perceptive readings of Voyage in the Dark, an early Rhys novel, and Wide Sargasso Sea, Rhyss masterpiece written twentyseven years later. She shows how Rhys uses the terms of a mans discourse, then introduces a womans (or several womens) discourse as a compelling counterpoint that, in time, becomes prominent and gives each novel its thematic impact. In presenting a continuing dialogue with the dominant language and at the same time making explicit the place of a womans own language, Rhys gives us a paradigm for a new and basically moral text.
