Title: Representing Rural Women
Description: Representing Rural Women highlights the complexity and diversity of representations of rural women in the U.S. and Canada in literature, popular culture, and print, digital, and social media. Examining a range of time periods and geographic spaces, the essays in this collection consider how women and girls navigate rural life, create spaces for self-expression, develop networks to communicate their experiences, and challenge misconceptions and stereotypes of rural womanhood. The collection explores the ways that rural geography both allows freedoms and imposes constraints on women's lives--back cover.
