Rezensionen

'Can we envision a world where we embrace otherness? In an increasingly mobile, but fractious world, Exile Through a Gendered Lens adds another link into the history of English, French, German, and Spanish women writers and filmmakers that explore, expose and/or subvert gendered otherness. It is a welcome and useful text that I will include in my class.' - María Camí-Vela, University of North Carolina Wilmington
