<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>An examination of feminist writers' appropriation of a range of popular genres: detective fiction, science fiction, romance and the fairy tale. The author argues that feminists can successfully appropriate all four genres because genres, as cultural productions, have accommodated the cultural changes brought about by second-wave feminism. The book provides a history of each of the genres, reinstating women's contributions in those histories, and a comprehensive review of the feminist critical debates on each of the genres.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'...this book is a good introduction to feminist popular fiction...' - Nancy St. Clair, Science Fiction Studies</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>MERJA MAKINEN is Principal Lecturer in English Literary Studies at Middlesex University.
