Representation of Single Mothers in Petra Soukupová’s Contemporary Czech Prose: Guilty Mothers and Uninvolved Fathers
Original language description
The chapter focuses on single mothers in works by the very popular Czech writer Petra Soukupová, whose novels deal with stories about family in contemporary Czech society. Recent psychological research, focusing on the subjective well-being of single parents, has suggested that the psychological costs of single parenting may be much lower in countries where the dominance of the nuclear-family paradigm has been revised. A key role is played by the country’s normative climate. This normative climate may depend largely on the local popular culture, including popular literary fiction. This chapter considers to what extent representations of single mothers in Soukupová’s works act as a conservative factor highlighting the negatives of single motherhood, or as a voice for its endorsement.
