The book explores the overlooked influence of domestic servants in the Modernist literary works of Virginia Woolf, Gertrude Stein, Nella Larsen, and Jean Rhys. It highlights how the unique position of these servants challenges readers to see them not merely as characters, but as essential elements in the creation of literature and the domestic spaces that foster literary production. By examining their roles, the author reveals deeper insights into the narratives and experimental forms of Modernist fiction.
