      abstract = {This book focuses on the challenges women face when their  externally defined identities and representations as bodies  - their body fictions - speak louder than what they know to  be their lived experience. As objects of interpretation,  "female bodies" in search of health care, legal assistance,  professional respect, identity confirmation, and financial  security must first confront the fictionalized doubles.  This volume includes reflections on women's day to day  lives, as well as the cultural production (literature, MTV,  film etc.) that give body fictions their powerful  influence. By exploring how these fictions are manipulated  politically, expressively and communally, contributors  offer reinterpretations that challenge the fictional double  while theorizing the discursive and performative forms that  it takes.},
