This is an introduction to a new area of literary study. "Is women's writing different from men's?" "Do women write about particular subjects or treat them in a distinctive way? "Does women's writing mean feminist writing?" and "Why are we only just discovering many women writers?" These are some of the questions this book addresses, drawing on a wide range of texts from the familiar ones of fiction, poetry and drama to the less familiar ones - letters, journals, travel books.
