Description
This companion volume to Schlueter's Feminist Rereeading of Modern American Drama contains 20 essays that focus on female playwrights rather than on feminist interpretations of male playwrights. It includes chapters on four black women playwrights--Lorraine Hansberry, Adrienne Kennedy, Alice Childress, and Ntozake Shange. Of particular interest are Linda Hart's "Canonizing Lesbians?" and Dinnah Pladott's provocative essay on Gertrude Stein, which points out how totally Stein was an exile--a Jewish lesbian living away from her native country, her writing style so far removed from the mainstream that it bewildered and alienated many readers. The concept of the woman writer as exile is implicit in many of the essays in this collection. ISBN 0-8386-3387-0 : $42.50.
