This book addresses the ways in which 12 women writers use their heroines' stories to challenge commonly held and frequently damaging notions of adolescence, femininity, and regional identity. The book begins with an introduction on sociological and literary theories of adolescent female development, and also includes an informed discussion of young adult fiction and southern literature. Chapters that follow focus on adolescent heroines in the novels and autobiographies of the contemporary southern women writers Anne Tyler, Bobbie Ann Mason, Josephine Humphreys, Dorothy Allison, Kaye Gibbons, Tina Ansa, Janisse Ray and Jill McCorkle and young adult writers Katherine Paterson, Mildred Taylor and Cynthia Voigt.
