Harrington (English, U. of South Alabama) assembles 14 essays that critically examine the short fiction of British and American women writers from the 1850s through the late twentieth century, using an approach that argues that the short story can be viewed as feminist, as it was itself seen as a marginalized form in history. It aims to offer a broad examination of these short stories and emphasize both form (addressed in each essay) and themes such as gender and identity, race, women's experiences, femininity, and religion. Essays, arranged by period, cover authors such as Rebecca Harding Davis, Louisa May Alcott, Kate Chopin, Katherine Anne Porter, Flannery O'Connor, Cynthia Ozick, and Ursula Le Guin, as well as lesser-known authors such as L.T. Meade, Alice Dunbar-Nelson, and Sui Sin Far. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
