Central to the essays thoughtfully compiled and presented here by the editors is the premise that women have much to gain from the risks involved in defying societal norms, of challenging inhibiting conceptualizations of individual, gendered, community, and national identities, of breaching discursive norms, and of the risky undertaking of autobiography itself, particularly evident in the laudable contributions by Anna Rocca and Jean Anderson. This volume will be of great interest and use to students and scholars of Francophone contemporary women's writing and filmmaking, autobiographical writing, trauma studies, and gender.
