AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'Feminist Values are encoded in different ways at ... structural levels in postmodern fictional texts. Charades and A.S. Byatt's novella 'The Djinn in the Nightingale's Eye' (1994) both 'generate structures derived in part from their source text [The Thousand and One NIghts] that provide ... a shared message about features of female life and storytelling that goes beyond the messages derivable directly from their very different plots.'
