As a comparative literature study, this book analyzes the works of Sevim Burak and Ursula K. Le Guin in order to unearth the similar feminist themes they explore, and shows that the two authors differ in their methods. It highlights that, while Burak explores feminist themes in creating worlds that resemble our own through an unconventional writing style, Le Guin creates unusual worlds and characters through a more traditional form of writing. In creating their works, they both aim to destroy phallogocentric language in different ways, which makes them representative of feminist writing.
