Glancing Fires

The book is a ground-breaking work on the meaning and production of feminist artistic expression. The contributors explore the connections and contradictions between their work - as writers, artists, singers, dancers, teachers - and their lives. In a careful and rigorous commentary Lesley Saunders places these explorations within a wide political context which addresses the questions of sexuality, class and race. This is a challenging and inspiring contribution to the field of feminist literary and political theory.
