- Description
- 'Making girls into women' offers an account of the historical emergence of 'the lesbian' by looking at late-nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century women's writing. Kent proposes that modern lesbian identity in the United States has its roots not just, or even primarily, in sexology and medical literature, but in white, middle-class women's culture. Kent demonstrates how, as white women's culture shifted more and more from the home to the school, workplace, and boardinghouse, the boundaries between the public and private spheres began to dissolve. She not only analyses how texts present queer erotics, but also theorizes how texts might produce them in readers. She describes the ways postbellum sentimental literature such as that written by H. Beecher Stowe, L.M. Alcott and E.D. Kelley eroticises, reacts against, and even, in its own efforts to shape girls' selves, contributes to the production of queer female identifications and identities. Further on she considers works by Djuna Barnes, Gertrude Stein, Marianne Moore, and Elizabeth Bishop, as well as the queer subject-forming effects of another modern invention, the Girl Scouts.

- Description
- Improvements in education and economic expansion in the 1950s ensured a range of school-leaving employment opportunities. Yet girls' full acceptance as adult women was still confirmed by marriage and motherhood rather than employment. This book examines the gendered nature of 'career'. Using both written sources and oral history, it enters the theoretical debate over the significance of gender by considering the relationship between individual women and the dominant representation of 'Woman'.

- Description
- The book examines nonfiction feminist texts as well as novels by Helene Hegemann, Caitlin Moran, Charlotte Roche, Emma Jane Unsworth, Kate Zambreno, and Juli Zeh, among others. These texts illustrate the complex processes by which female subjects become women today. Failure, refusal, disgust, and anger are striking features of these becomings. Drawing on the work of Sara Ahmed and thinkers including Simone de Beauvoir, Rosi Braidotti and Elizabeth Grosz, the book demonstrates the significance of willfulness for understandings and assertions of female agency.
