Description
In European travel literature, interiors and domestic spaces have received little critical attention. This practice-led study explores the nature of writing about domestic encounters and domestic spaces used by two female travel writers, Freya Stark (1893-1993) and Ella Maillart (1903-1997). Their works suggest the possibility of an alternative relationship between author and subject, with a point of view permitting the observation of rich ethnographic details and attention to everyday life and everyday women. The study includes a work of creative non-fiction based on travels in kitchens in Iran and far west China.
