What is post-feminist literature? Is this where women work out that what they really wanted all along was to marry a good earner and have babies?

So, according to your link, an answer to the OP was Bridget Jones' Diary.
McRobbie believed that postfeminism was most clearly seen on so-called feminist media products, such as Bridget Jones's Diary, Sex and the City, and Ally McBeal. Female characters like Bridget Jones and Carrie Bradshaw claimed to be liberated and clearly enjoy their sexuality, but what they were constantly searching for was the one man who would make everything worthwhile
Aloof and "hard to get" characters like Mr Darcy and Mr Big are winning women over.
