Answer 1

Answer:

The impact of the female writers were really effective in the post modern literary period.

Explanation:

The stories like ‘I want to be miss America’ and ‘the struggle to be an all American girl’ has very beautifully explained the stereotypical behaviour and practices which prevailed in the postmodern literary period. One of the examples from ‘I want to be miss America’ is when she was asked if she knows how to cook. The second example is when she was actually exclaimed as smart for pursuing education. These examples show the stereotypical mindset of the people in the postmodern literary period.

Answer 2

This period is considered to be a moment of testing boundaries, to distinguish from the 17th and 18th C values and customs. This period seems to be based on disorder and a playful approach to life. 
That is why the role of women in literature changed completely. Their characters are protagonists, they are strong, they do not depend on men. They represent independent, female issues. They were able to express themselves, to reveal their feelings and emotions as well as their thoughts and opinions. <span />
