Harada examines the various meanings of (re)production in light of feminist and queer studies and offers close readings of works by novelists Murata Sayaka, O?hara Mariko, Ueda Sayuri and manga artists Hagio Moto and Shirai Yumiko. Scholarship of SF in Japanese studies has primarily focused on male authors, but this book shows not only how women writers have created a space in SF and speculative fiction but how their work can be seen as a response to particular social norms and government policies"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aBrill's Japanese Studies Library 606 $aSex in literature 606 $aHuman reproduction in literature 608 $aLiterary criticism.$2lcgft 615 0$aSex in literature. 615 0$aHuman reproduction in literature. 676 $a895.636099287 700 $aHarada$b Kazue$01525306 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910795425703321 996 $aSexuality, maternity, and (re)productive futures$93766613 997 $aUNINA
