Collaboration in the Feminine

Some of Canada's most innovative and critical writers have published their work in the literary journal Tessera. The contributors provided fresh insights into themes such as race and gender, writing and memory, power and ethics, feminist theory and translation. The collection vividly explores the breaking down of formal barriers and the writing across genres that has been such an important facet of this feminist literary project.
