Popis: Chamberlain addresses the way in which the wave narrative is established and how it has been historically understood. Looking to the problems and difficulties associated with the narrative, the chapter explores why feminists might choose to reject the wave. This is countered with a positive understanding of the narrative, which could be a much more open and fluid means of approaching feminism than the mother-daughter trope. The chapter finishes with a positive understanding of how the wave is necessary for feminism, emphasising shared feeling and collective cohesiveness.
