Description Stephanie Bird presents a detailed analysis of the twin themes of female and national identity within the works of three major twentieth-century German-language women writers.

She studies the three writers closely and draws on feminist theory and psychoanalysis to clarify the complex nature of individual identity. This book will be of interest to literary and women's studies scholars as well as Germanists. Editorial Reviews Review "Well written, well argued, and well researched, this book offers excellent analysis of selected novels and stories by three very different authors...
