Abstract
This book offers a trailblazing account of postfeminist sensibility as a digital feeling. It explores how we feel when the digital has become intertwined with our intimate relationships to ourselves and to others. The book develops a novel approach that draws on feminist theories of affect, emotion, and structures of feeling, to analyse the entanglements of the digital and the non-digital, and the public and the private, and to show how good feeling shapes a contemporary moment that often leads us back to normativity and reproduces systemic inequality. Each chapter offers an original analysis of an assemblage of instances that provide a snapshot of our current emotional landscapes.
