In considering the shifting contexts and shaping experiences of child sexual abuse, I focus in this essay on writers I call survivors. I identify these survivors as literary because they are well-respected authors in their own right and because they self-consciously locate their treatments of sexual abuse in relation to received literature and constructions of history. Using the concept survivor, I seek to foreground the agency of the writers I study and the politics of cultural criticism they take up in writing back to the modernist projects of hyper-individuation
