By examining Djuna Barnes' work, this title raises questions about biography and feminist criticism, identity and authority, and modernist canon formation. It shows how throughout Barnes' corpus the repetition of texts forces us to rethink the relationship between authority and gender and the reasons for her marginal place within modernism.
