Myths and Fairy Tales in Contemporary Women's Fiction explores contemporary feminist, postmodernist, and postcolonial women writers’ use and revisions of fairy tales and myths. With close readings of works ranging from Margaret Atwood to Doris Lessing to Toni Morrison, Wilson examines meanings of myths and fairy tales as well as their varying techniques, images, intertexts, and genres. Although the writers represent several different nationalities and racial, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds, they employ a type of postcolonial literature that urges readers and societies beyond colonization. Wilson argues that the use of myths and fairy tales generally convey characters’ transformation from alienation and symbolic amputation to greater consciousness, community, and wholeness, and it is in and through story that characters construct a hybrid way of establishing themselves in the larger world.
Sharon Rose Wilson is Professor of English and Women's Studies, University of Northern Colorado and is the author of Margaret Atwood's Fairy-Tale Sexual Politics. She is currently President of the Doris Lessing Society and was Founding co-President of the Margaret Atwood Society. She edited Margaret Atwood's Textual Assassinations and co-edited Approaches to Teaching Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale and Other Works with Thomas B. Friedman and Shannon Hengen.
