Contrary to Virginia Woolf's famous recommendation that a woman needs a locked room of her own to be able to write, the work of the women authors featured in this volume was born of their journeys through the cities, countries and continents, wars, revolutions and autocratic regimes of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Their journeys are often voluntary and desired, but they are also fortuitous or chosen as a result of constraints, vicissitudes or political unrest. With a rich and complex cultural and linguistic heritage, nurtured by numerous languages and different socio-historical contexts, and indebted to the literatures of the world within which their own voices are boldly inserted, the work of French-speaking foreign women writers presents a relationship to languages, space and the world that raises many questions - to which this book sets out to provide some food for thought and answers.
