Description

Explore how boredom became a defining narrative force in British modernist literature through this scholarly examination of gender, literature and cultural meaning. Allison Pease investigates the presence of bored women across celebrated works including Robert Hitchens's The Garden of Allah, May Sinclair's middlebrow novels, H. G. Wells and Virginia Woolf's The Voyage Out, revealing how the evolving concept of boredom reshapes our understanding of modernist narrative techniques, feminism's struggle to define women as individuals and male modernists' complex relationship with female characters. This Cambridge University Press publication offers critical insight into how women's ennui functions as narrative impetus, antagonist and climax in twentieth-century fiction, bridging literary criticism with feminist theory to challenge conventional readings of modernist texts and gender representation.
