Over the course of the twentieth century, cars have helped to define the experiences
and self-perceptions of women in complex and sometimes unexpected ways.When
women take the wheel, family structures and public spaces are reconfigured and re-
gendered, creating the context for a literary tradition in which the car has served as
a substitute for, an escape from, and an extension of the home, as well as a surrogate
mother, a financial safeguard, and a means of self-expression.
Driving Women examines the intersection of American
fiction
—
primarily but not
exclusively by women
—
and automobile culture. Deborah Clarke argues that issues
critical to twentieth-century American society
—
technology, mobility, domesticity,
and agency
—
are repeatedly articulated through women s relationships with cars.
Women writers took a surprisingly early and intense interest in car culture and
its import for modern life, as the car, replete with material and symbolic meaning,
recast literal and literary female power in the automotive age.
Clarke draws on a wide range of literary works, both canonical and popular, to
document women s fascination with cars from many perspectives: historical,
psychological, economic, ethnic. Authors discussed include Wharton, Stein, Faulkner,
O Connor, Morrison, Erdrich, Mason, Kingsolver, Lopez, Kadohata, Smiley, Senna,
Viramontes, Allison, and Silko. By investigating how cars can function as female
space, reflect female identity, and reshape female agency, this engaging study opens
up new angles from which to approach fiction by and about women and traces new
directions in the intersection of literature, technology, and gender.
