  Demonstrates how soap opera validates an essentially feminine perspective. Drawing on psychoanalytic theory and feminist film criticism, this title explores the ways in which soap opera has inverted the typical male-centered narrative characterized by a domineering, Oedipal father-son relationship that serves to control female energy.
