Inhaltsangabe

A radical reinterpretation of Willa Cather’s oeuvre

Deploying the concepts and techniques of Body Studies, Guy J. Reynolds remaps Cather’s vast and diverse range of writing from the 1890s through to 1940. His study of embodiment and narrative focuses on the senses and reads Cather as a writer at the transition from late Victorian to Modernist modes of representation. The book presents suggestive new ways of understanding her depictions of disability, male bodies and Native American culture, not to mention her narratives of whiteness and of the black body.
