During the Second World War many women writers sought to reconceptualize temporal relations. Often this was part of a fictional strategy of `writing oneself out' of the temporal reality of war. Virginia Woolf and Elizabeth Bowen propose strongly contrasting conceptions of this alternative time, but both imagine a `women's time' that is other to the patriarchal linear temporality perceived as the time of war
