Portada de Janet Beer: Kate Chopin, Edith Wharton and Charlotte Perkins Gilman (PDF)

A wide range of short fiction by Kate Chopin, Edith Wharton and Charlotte Perkins Gilman is the focus for this study, examining both genre and theme. Chopin’s short stories, Wharton’s novellas, Chopin’s frankly erotic writing and the homilies in which Gilman warns of the dangers of the sexually transmitted disease are compared. There are also essays on ethnicity in the work of Chopin, Wharton’s New England stories, Gilman’s innovative use of genre and ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ on film. All three writers are still popular in US classrooms in particular. This paperback edition includes a new Preface to the material, providing a useful update on recent scholarship.
