Narrative Prosthesis: Disability and the Dependencies of Discourse (Corporealities: Discourses Of Disability) - Softcover
Synopsis
Narrative Prosthesis: Disability and the Dependencies of Discourse develops a narrative theory of the pervasive use of disability as a device of characterization in literature and film.
