Title: Intuitions in literature, technology, and politics
Description: An energetically interdisciplinary project, this book incorporates queer theory, disability studies, and digital humanities into well-informed, new readings on post-WWII authors including Bruce Andrews, Thomas Pynchon, and Sylvia Plath. Using the idea of 'parability, 'or the ability for writers to tell improper stories, as a foundation, Alan Ram̤n Clinton synthesizes a new model for a creative, more daring literary criticism. Privileging singularity and invention over leaden argumentation, this study expands the idea of what it means to read literary texts.
