Opening Acts

- Narrative Beginnings in Twentieth-Century Feminist Fiction

About Opening Acts

In the beginning there was...the beginning. And with the beginning came the power to tell a story. Few book-length studies of narrative beginnings exist, and not one takes a feminist perspective. Opening Acts reveals the important role of beginnings as moments of discursive authority with power and agency that have been appropriated by writers from historically marginalized groups.
