Private Practices: Girls Reading Fiction And Constructing Identity
Saskatchewan Meredith Cherland University of Regina
Examines the broad fictional reading of middle class pre-teen girls in ethnographic detail, and describes the place of literacy in the construction of gender. The book provides evidence to support its central assumption: gender is a cultural and social construction, not a biological given.
