This is a project that explores women's interiority by turning to the works of two prominent female writers: Virginia Woolf and June Jordan. To examine the convergence of these two generationally, geographically, and racially disparate writers, I use Toni Morrison as a theoretical middle ground. In order to explore the convergence of Woolf and Jordan—two seemingly divergent writers—I examine three figures of women in society significant to their corpus: the mother, the artist, and the soldier.Collections
