Opis

Nicelle Davis s The Walled Wife unearths from the long-standing text The Ballad of the Walled-up Wife, a host of issues that continue to plague women in the contemporary world: the woman s body as sacrifice; the woman s body as tender or currency; the woman s body as disposable; the woman s body as property; the woman s body as aesthetic object; the woman s body unsafe in the world she must inhabit, and in the hands of the people she loves."
