Description

The Desire to Desire is a study of the symptoms of ideological stress in the genre of the Hollywood woman's film of the 1940s.

The book traces the way in which female spectatorship is specified by its lapses or failures, arguing that the woman's film asserts and denies female desire, attributing to the woman only an impossible gaze.
