Publisher's Synopsis

This volume focuses on historical fiction written by and for women, approximately, in the last 30 years and across the entire globe. It comprises three parts. The first one draws on the theme of the inner life and experiences of the female historical figure, the second one is concerned with genre-bending that fuels the construction of the vast majority of story worlds within the genre, and the third one with the idea of unusual angles that the historical fiction storytelling employs.
