Envisioning Disease, Gender, and War: Women's Narratives of the 1918 Influenza Pandemic

by Jane Fisher

This critical study illuminates the neglected intersection of war, disease, and gender as represented in an important subgenre of World War I literature. It calls into question public versus private perceptions of time, mass media, urban spaces, emotion, and the increasingly uncertain status of the future.
