内容説明
Maintaining that women's storytelling is a telling activity, this study explores the emotion of guilt in novels by five 20th-century writers: Simone de Beauvoir ("L'Invitee"); Marguerite Duras ("Le Ravissement de Lol V. Stein"); Anne Hebert ("Kamouraska"); Virginia Woolf ("Mrs Dalloway"); and Nicole Brossard ("Le Desert Mauve"). It finds in the vocabulary and atmosphere of these novels a linking of female protagonists to crime and culpability. The guilt, however, is not clearly imputed or assumed; it tends to trouble the conscience of the entire narrative. Through critical close readings and an inquiry into the interrelations among narration, transgression and gender, McPherson explores how the women in the stories come under suspicion and how they attempt to reverse or rewrite the guilty sentence.
