This collection reveals the richness of the narrative fiction of prizewinning writer Carme Riera. Riera forms part of the veritable explosion of literature by women writers in post-Franco Spain and she is specifically linked to the talented constellation of women writing in Catalan. Moveable Margins opens with an overview of Carme Riera's life and opus followed by a section with a preface by Riera and two interviews bringing the writer herself into bold relief and facilitating the reader's unmediated access to her thinking. The second section contains ten critical essays that apply widely varying critical approaches that range from feminist, psycho-analytical, formalist, poststructuralist, new historical, and intertextual to postmodern and postcolonial. The volume also features Riera's hitherto unpublished play in the Catalan original and in English translation. This book will appeal to those interested in twentieth-century Peninsular literature, comparative literature, feminist criticism, gender studies, and cultural studies.
