This significant new book is an interdisciplinary study of violence,its narrativisation and affects, of collective identity formation, national, ethnic and racial. It studies the ways in which these are gendered by women who are subjected to violence, who survive these conflicts and who narrate both the violence and the collective identity. The study is focused around widely-read novels written by women authors over the last 30 or so years. Each of these novels revisits sites of extreme or intense violence in the lives both of its protagonists and of the collective to which they belong in the process of defining the identity ofthat collective. Each of these novels also deals with a different historical event of violence: Toni Morrison b2 ss Beloved (slavery) and Sula (World War I), Amy Tan b2 ss The Joy Luck Club (World War II), MaxineHong Kingston b2 ss The Woman Warrior (feudal China), and Isabel Allende b2 ss The House of Spirits (State Terrorism). The book reads texts as disparate as Shakespeare b2 ss Titus Andronicus and the Bible to create a theoretical framework for theconstructions of individual and collective identities that are deeply embedded in these narratives of violence. Each text interrogates the nature of the collective formed. In form and narrative strategies these texts deploy non-real tropes and elements, using these to index realities in registers other than the empirical, figure forth realities that strain at the limits of human comprehension andendurance and, finally, to gesture towards future realities too difficult to imagine.
