Summary/Abstract: The paper investigates the ways in which spaces absorb one’s identity within the process of relating gender to landscapes, either urban or rural. By examining the link between gender, space, and identity in Kate Atkinson’s popular writings, the author focuses on aspects of the characters’ everydayness and their interactions with spaces (and people) that contribute to the shaping of their individual and communal identities.
