This project explores the multiple strategies of narrative voice in contemporary women’s writing and filmmaking in France and suggests an emerging trend in this new literature that incorporates elements of performance and theatricality in writings and filmic productions that focus on intimacy and more private questions of personal experience. This work will appeal to a wide-range of readers and scholars with an interest in women’s writing in French literature, film studies, gender studies, women’s studies, psychoanalysis, theatre and performance art.
