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 Ramón
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.
