Abstract

950 women shared their experience of sexual harassment or assault within the Finland-Swedish #MeToo campaign Dammen brister. This study assumes the campaign as constituting a widened narrative space that allowed writers more freedom to choose what to share and how to share it, and, starting from genre and narration, it questions how this space was used by the writers. Thereby, it seeks to attain insight to the conditions and limitations of narrating rape. The study focuses on two different ways of narration roughly categorized as telling a little and telling a lot.
