"This book offers an interdisciplinary approach to women's autobiographical writing in twentieth-century China. The author applies feminist insights to works by such well-known authors as Qiu Jin, Bing Xin, Ding Ling, and Wang Anyi and to works by other, lesser-known writers. Throughout, these writings are analyzed in relation to the discourses of modernity - nationalism, revolution, socialism, and market commodification - that have dominated modern China."--BOOK JACKET.
