Contemporary Spanish Women’s Narrative
Contemporary Spanish Women`s Narrative and the Publishing industry.
2003.
Sinopsis:
As in other countries, the effects of commercialization in Spain are changing the direction of publishing. Arguing that women face a particularly complex situation because the inclusion of their work is still considered a novelty in a male-dominated field, Christine Henseler examines the strategies of Spanish women authors in the face of market forces. In a consumer economy that places books in supermarkets and mega-bookstores and in which novels are promoted and read more for entertainment than for their literary merit, women’s books tend to be more highly regarded when they cater to feminist, erotic, or commercial niche markets..
