Mothers and mothering are significant features of contemporary women's writing in France, but in Marie NDiaye's writing, mothers often appear inadequate, abusive or even murderous. This book seeks to explore what this negative representation tells us about mothers and how mothers represent their own mothering to themselves.
Pauline Eaton holds a PhD in Modern French Studies from Birkbeck, University of London, for her work on Marie NDiaye. The focus of her studies has been a search for the literary representation of motherhood from the point of view of the mother. Published articles include «Rosie Carpe and the Virgin Mary: Modelling Modern Motherhood?» in Religion and Gender and «Three Strong Grandmothers» in Studies in Gender and Sexuality.
