Popis: |
The essay explores the rising popularity of feminist dystopian fiction in literary studies, focusing on Leni Zumas' novel Red Clocks. It investigates how political anxieties are depicted through the interior monologues of four main female characters, highlighting the colonization of the female body as they grapple with unwanted pregnancies and resort to illegal means for abortions. The study suggests that feminist dystopian fiction, exemplified by Red Clocks, can be prophetic, anticipating issues such as abortion rights restrictions in the United States. The paper underscores the genre's role in raising awareness among women, depicting a world where men dictate how women should manage their bodies. |
