This dissertation argues that the mid-century's enduring domestic symbol of the good life-the quest for wealth, social success and wellbeing represented by the free-standing suburban house-has been one of the most significant factors in determining North America's current unviable model of living. A fine-grained analysis of counternarratives to this model may offer alternative possibilities that are more gender equitable and socially and ecologically sustainable. This project contends that mid-century women authors, including Shirley Jackson, Ann Petry, and Alice Munro, used architectural concepts as literary devices, revealing the home as a site on which Late Capitalist ideologies of gender, consumption, and upward mobility were forged. Exploring how these authors' depictions of unsettled and unsettling domesticity challenges, and also participates in, the good life ideal, this project asks: what new stories-in both the narrative and architectural sense-become available to us if we recalibrate our relationship to the home?Lacking access to the traditionally male-oriented literary genres of the large-scale journey-the voyage, the picaresque adventure-I argue that postwar women, and here I include both female characters and writers, found narrative possibility within small dislocations from the home: literary depictions of temporarily interrupted domesticity which expose the uncanny or alienating aspects of the domestic sphere. The small dislocation generates different narrative responses; it provides a critical distance from the home, from which the female narrator questions the good life and its scripts, and ultimately, through the telling of the story, creates a new script in which she drives the story. Yet the distance that these small dislocations open also allows for the melancholic pleasure of seeing what one is separated from, producing nostalgia for old scripts. The literary and cultural texts I draw from thus share a grammar of ambivalence- towards change, new forms of mobility and confining, although sometimes re-assuring, social scripts; yet this uncertainty, I argue, is precisely what fuels these works' generative and imaginative capability, allowing us to recognize the home as a script-in-progress, the malleability of which destabilizes essential notions of domesticity. Bringing together the disciplines of cultural and affect studies, 20th century American domestic architectural history, ecocriticism, and narrative theory, this project offers an intersectional feminist study of the narrative forms emerging from the 20thcentury search for female mobility within architectural, environmental, and political structures.

Ce projet soutient que le symbole domestique durable de la bonne vie, issu du milieu du siecle dernier - la quete de la richesse, de la reussite sociale et du bien-etre representee par la maison de banlieue isolee - a ete l'un des facteurs les plus importants dans l'élaboration du modele de vie actuel non viable de l'Amérique du Nord. Une analyse détaillée des contre-discours opposes a ce modele peut offrir des possibilites alternatives plus equitables en matiere de genre et plus durables sur le plan social et ecologique. Ce projet affirme que des auteures du milieu du siecle dernier, notamment Shirley Jackson, Ann Petry et Alice Munro, utilisaient des concepts architecturaux en tant que procedes litteraires, revelant la maison comme un site ou les ideologies du capitalisme avancee en matiere de genre, de consommation et de mobilite ascendante ont ete forgees. En explorant la facon dont les representations de ces auteurs d'une domesticite troublee et troublante defient, et participent également, a l'idéal de la bonne vie, ce projet pose la question suivante : quels nouveaux espaces - litteraires et architecturaux - nous sont rendus disponibles si nous reajustons ajustons notre relation a la maison?Puisque les femmes de l'apres-guerre n'avait pas acces aux genres litteraires traditionnellement masculins des voyages a grande echelle - l'exploration, l'aventure picaresque - je soutiens que ces femmes, et j'inclus ici les personnages et les ecrivains feminins, ont trouve des possibilites narratives dans les petites dislocations de la maison : des representations litteraires de la domesticite temporairement interrompue qui exposent les aspects etranges (unheimlich, uncanny) ou alienants de la sphere domestique. La petite dislocation genere differentes reponses narratives; elle fournit une distance critique par rapport a la maison, a partir de laquelle la narratrice remet en question la bonne vie et ses modeles, et finalement, a travers le déroulement de l'histoire, cree un nouveau modele dans lequel elle définit l'histoire. Pourtant, la distance que ces petites dislocations ouvrent permet aussi le plaisir melancolique de voir ce dont on est separe, produisant la nostalgie des anciens scenarios. Les textes litteraires et culturels dont je me sers partagent donc une grammaire de l'ambivalence - a l'égard du changement, des nouvelles formes de mobilite et des scripts sociaux contraignants, bien que parfois rassurants. Pourtant, je soutiens que cette incertitude est precisement ce qui alimente la capacite de génération et d'imagination de ces oeuvres, nous permettant de reconnaitre la maison comme un scenario en cours, dont la malleabilite destabilise les notions essentielles de la domesticite. En reunissant diverse disciplines - les études culturelles, les études de l'affect, l'histoire de l'architecture domestique américaine du XXe siecle, la critique écologique et la théorie narrative - ce projet se veut une etude feministe intersectionnelle des formes narratives emergeant de la poursuite de la mobilite feminine au XXe siecle au sein des structures architecturales, environnementales et politiques.
