This book examines menstruation, childbirth, and the menopause in contemporary Algerian, Mauritian, and French women's writing. It looks back to the pioneering work of the second-wave feminists and argues that contemporary women's writing has continued to challenge normative perceptions whilst also taking a more intersectional approach to corporeal experience.
