Meer over het boek
Examining the works of notable twentieth-century and contemporary female writers, this book delves into the themes of violence and oppression within socially and culturally engaged Gothic ghost stories. It highlights how these narratives use the ghostly motif to explore the intersections of personal and political trauma, revealing the historical disenfranchisement of women. By portraying women as unquiet spirits, the stories challenge domestic norms and amplify voices that confront societal injustices, ultimately providing a platform for the unspeakable truths of women's experiences.
