This article examines Anna Couani’s formal experimentation which it locates within the gendered and cultural contexts of minoritisation. It examines how Couani’s postromantic critique of realism constitutes an exploration of subjectivity and identity formation. Her experimental fiction, I argue, in its efforts to defamiliarise reading conventions, articulates a crisis of belonging. In its radical poetics of the gendered everyday it seeks to locate the body in the alternative communities which characterise minority constituencies. 2010-01-01T00:00:00Z Contributors https://hdl.handle.net/2123/7667 Contributors 2010-01-01T00:00:00Z Introduction https://hdl.handle.net/2123/7665 Introduction Mycak, Sonia; Sarwal, Amit 2010-01-01T00:00:00Z
