Product Information
An exploration of the wide variety of truths' surrounding the controversial topic of incest.The first part presents four accounts of incest, drawn from interviews with black women who have, in the past, been victims of it. These accounts then serve as a springboard for examining the problems of narrative construction in five fictional works dealing with the subject. The taboo nature of the subject matter leads the authors to one, fundamental question - how does one tell a story which cannot be told, particularly if one is a black woman?'Product Identifiers
