Transgressing Boundaries In Jeanette Wintersons Fiction eBook

The subsequent chapters of the book deal with selected questions from Jeanette Wintersons fiction, such as gender issues, love and eroticism, language and time, constituting areas within which Wintersons characters seek their identity. As they contest and repudiate clichés, stereotypes and patterns, their journey of self-discovery is accomplished through transgression. The book analyzes how the subversion of phallogocentric narrative and scenarios entails the reenvisaging of relations between the genders and reconceptualization of female desire. The author attempts to determine the consequences of Wintersons manipulations with gender, sexuality and time, and her disruption of the binary system.
