The role of female voices in constructing fictional maps of contemporary Britain. 2010 Special issue of Interactions

The 2010 special issue of Interactions intends to explore the work of diasporic-transnational women's writers, who over the last decades have drawn new contours of literary Britain. The work of women writers of dual or multiple cultural heritage in Britain contributes to the positioning of English literature at a cultural crossroads of international scope and significance. The authors discussed in the volume have managed to chart new geographies of unbelonging and rewrite Britain as a multicultural physical and imagined space.
