| dc.description.abstract | My thesis collection, 'Lingering in the Crosshairs,' examines the dynamics of family relationships and identity, while focusing on how identity is formed within the family dynamic. I have explored these themes through the genres of short fiction, poetry, and the personal essay. Several of the pieces in this collection were both influenced by and reflect on my own experiences as the eldest daughter in a divorced family. Within these pieces I presented myself, or the characters that resemble me, as a daughter in the crosshairs. It is a place where my characters and I are forced to make choices between a mother and a father, and congruently the feminine and masculine worlds, or environments, that they each represent. Those that were not influenced by my personal relationships still reflect these themes by examining parent/child relationships. | en_US |
