dc.description.abstract | Zadie Smith’s latest novel, NW, presents a multiverse in which
multiplicity is driven into homogeneization by the forces of those dominant
discourses that attempt to suppress the category of the “Other.” This paper
focuses on the development of the two female protagonists. Their opposing
attitudes towards motherhood, together with their confrontation with their
origins, bring to the fore the performativity found in the discourses of gender,
sexuality, class, and race. Thus, this paper will explore authenticity and
performativity in a contemporary context, where patriarchal and neocolonial
discourses still apply. | pl_PL |
