Women Writers and the Restive Text: Feminism, Experimental Writing and Hypertext by Barbara Page

In this text Page refers to the strong connection of hypertext and feminism, focusing on the unconventional writing of several female authors. The hypertextual way of writing provides a freedom and space for collaborative compositions and alternative interpretations of the text. This practice radicalise the narrow and patriarchal form of writing by being 'nonlinear, nonhierarchical, and decentering', and even fragmented. She gives an additional meaning to the term by referring to electronic writing, which is inclusive and 'interweaves' the media between them.
