Mostrar otras versiones (1)

Drawing on Marxist-feminist theory, this book examines womena (TM)s resistance to, and subversion of, patriarchal authority, as respresented in Kuwaiti womena (TM)s fiction. It demonstrates that Kuwaiti/Arabian Gulf women are not as submissive as commonly (mis)represented in academia and the media.
