This feminist literary study discusses postmodern ideas about the self, particularly about the way in which selves are constructed by biography and autobiography. The author particularly examines the manner in which women write about themselves.

Liz Stanley's acclaimed study presents a theory of feminist auto / biography through close readings of the lifestories of Hannah Culwick and Arthur Munby, Emily Wilding Davidson, Edith Lees Ellis and Edward Carpenter's other women correspondents, Olive Schreiner, Peter Sutcliffe and the '[Our Mothers' 'Voices' project. Not only does she analyse written representations of the self, but also looks at photography, her own and others.' The result is an essential book for anyone interested in the theory and practice of auto / biography, memory and contemporary ides of subjectivity.
