- Description
- Patti Duncan explores multiple meanings of speech and silence in Asian American women's writings in order to explore relationships among race, gender, sexuality, and national identity. She argues that contemporary definitions of American feminism must be expanded to recognize the ways in which Asian American women have resisted and continue to challenge the various forms of oppression in their lives. The book contains portrayals of: Maxine Hong Kingston, Mitsuye Yamada, Joy Kogawa, Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, Nora Okja Keller and Anchee Min.

- Description
- In this collection the authors revisit Sontag's life and work. Against Interpretation, 'Notes on Camp,' Letter from Hanoi, On Photography, Illness as Metaphor, I, Etcetera, and The Volcano Lover —these works form the center of essays no less passionate and imaginative than Sontag herself. Debating questions raised by the thinker's own images and identities, including her sexuality, these works question Sontag's status as a female intellectual and her parallel interest in ambitious and prophetic fictional women: her ambivalence toward popular culture: and her personal and professional 'scandals.” Paired with rare photographs and illustrations, this anthology expands the understanding of Sontag's images and power.
