Female Sexuality in Modernist Fiction: Literary Techniques for Making Women Artists is a comprehensive exploration of the innovative writing styles of canonical modernist writers, shedding light on a significant shift in gendered representations of sexual subjectivity. Positioned at the intersection of studies on the body and sexuality in modernist literature, this book delves into the intricate cultural, political, and epistemological understandings of female sexuality. Through close reading strategies, it identifies how modernist authors challenge traditional representations of female positionality as passive, exploring how canonical modernist authors such as Virginia Woolf, W.B. Yeats, James Joyce, and Samuel Beckett found novel ways to represent women as embodied, sexual, desired, and desiring subjects through prose, poetry, and drama. This study encompasses Woolf's Orlando: A Biography (1928), Yeats's The Winding Stair and Other Poems (1933), Joyce's Finnegans Wake (1939), and Beckett's Not I (1972), as well as other dramatic works. By foregrounding sexuality as an integral part of female character, these works of modernist literature redefine our perception of the artistic body as a framework for contemplating woman as a linguistic construct and material reality. This research holds immense appeal to scholars in English literature, women and gender studies, and sexuality studies.
