Sister Narratives investigates the literary relationship of Margaret Drabble's The Waterfall and A. S. Byatt's Possession: A Romance by claiming that despite the actual sisterhood of the novelists the interrelationship of the 19th-century genres of the romance and the Bildungsroman establishes a literary sisterhood between these two 20th-century novels and the 19th-century female literary tradition. By reworking such female literary "myths" as Jane Eyre, The Mill on the Floss, Jane Austen's novel of manners as well as the abundant spatial imagery of the 19th-century female literary tradition Drabble's and Byatt's works create an intricate intertextual relationship with each other and their foremothers' writing even though the two authors differ so much from a lot of aspects.
