First line

Jane Austen's Persuasion (1818) is a novel constructed around what was, for its time, a radically unusual narrative premise: the love affair that should have culminated in a marriage to end a conventional romance has gone awry, and the heroine of the piece must begin again, eight and a half years later, on her quest for narrative closure.

From the rear cover

Ambiguous Discourse explores the role of gender in the struggle for narrative control of specific works by British writers Jane Austen, Virginia Woolf, Anita Brookner, Angela Carter, Jeanette Winterson, and Mina Loy. This collection of twelve essays is the first book devoted to feminist narratology - the combination of feminist theory with the study of the strictures that underpin all narratives.
