The Women of Orphan Black: Faces of the Feminist Spectrum

The Women of Orphan Black: Faces of the Feminist Spectrum by Valerie Estelle Frankel
English | April 11, 2018 | ISBN: 1476674124 | True EPUB | 232 pages | 5 MB

Orphan Black's Tatiana Maslany plays a host of the show's main characters, all clones of an illegal experiment. The mighty heroines save one another and destroy the patriarchy while subverting gender expectations.

The feminist clones are Sarah, who clashes with her radical feminist foster-mother; Alison, the quintessential post-feminist housewife; Cosima, a second-wave feminist lesbian; Beth, a third-wave feminist bogged down by addiction; and M.K., a fourth-wave feminist who tackles the hardships of disability through the Internet. The book explores the women's war against corporate power and how it relates to the science and ethics surrounding cloning.
