Cosmopolitan Culture and Consumerism in Chick Lit

About Cosmopolitan Culture and Consumerism in Chick Lit

Examines the way in which the women's fiction genre of the late 1990s, known as chick lit, responds to women's advice manuals such as women's magazines, self-help books, romantic comedies, and domestic-advice manuals. This study argues that chick lit questions the "consume and achieve promise" offered by advice manuals marketed toward women.
