Rhys Matters New Critical Perspectives

Rhys Matters argues for the importance of Jean Rhys's work to a more complete understanding of modernism, postcolonial studies, Caribbean studies, and women's and gender studies. This book is the first collection of essays focusing on Rhys's writing in over twenty years, and draws together original essays that make significant new interventions. The collection surveys nearly all of Rhys's major works, as well as providing insights into her positions in various disciplinary fields including literary studies, philosophy, material studies and Caribbean studies.
