Better Red is an interdisciplinary study addressing the complicated intersection of American feminism and the political left as refracted in Tillie Olsen's and Meridel Le Sueur's lives and literary texts. The first booklength study to explore these feminist writers' ties to the American Communist Party, it contributes to a reenvisioning of 1930s U.S. Communism as well as to efforts to promote workingclass writing as a legitimate category of literary analysis. At once loyal members of the maledominated Communist party and emerging feminists, Olsen and Le Sueur exhibit in their writing tendencies both toward and away from Party tenets and attitudesat points subverting formalist as well as orthodox Marxist literary categories. By producing workingclass discourse, Olsen and Le Sueur challenge the bourgeois assumptionsoften masked as classless and universalof much canonical literature; and by creating workingclass women's writing, they problematize the patriarchal nature of the Left and the masculinist assumptions of much proletarian literature, anticipating the concerns of 'second wave' feminists a generation later.
