Disability and Modern Fiction
Explore the powerful intersection of disability studies and literary criticism through an in-depth examination of the works of William Faulkner, Toni Morrison, and J. M. Coetzee. This insightful study investigates how representations of disability have evolved in modern literature and how these acclaimed Nobel Prize-winning authors challenge readers to engage with questions of identity, ethics, memory, and social responsibility.
Overview
By bringing together the works of three influential literary figures, this book offers fresh perspectives on the portrayal of disability in twentieth- and twenty-first-century fiction. Through close readings and comparative analysis, it reveals how disability functions not merely as a theme, but as a critical lens for understanding human experience, cultural values, and literary innovation.
