The article analyses the novel Alles verandert (Everything changes, 2015) by Flemish author Kristien Hemmerechts in the context of “feminist rewriting”. At the same time “feminist rewriting” is being introduced as a functional literary strategy that enables the writer to challenge and adapt the existing literary canon. Summing up the existing scholarship on feminist/women’s rewriting, the article makes a plea to include “feminist rewriting” in the (not only) Dutch literary-analytical toolbox in order to get a better understanding of such practices and their intentions.
