Contains 50 works by 37 Australian women writers. The themes include exploration of identity, the politics of feminism and the self-consciousness of writing. Many women have written of journeys: journeys of discovery, imaginary travels, forced movements, escapes. The 'statelessness' of women, whether oppressive or liberating is a recurrent motif throughout this collection. -- from a foreword titled: Second Degree of Tampering : Towards a Politics of Identity
