{"product_id":"theorizing-stephen-king-michael-blouin-9789048559619","title":"Theorizing Stephen King","description":"Readers of all stripes will find something to appreciate in this collection, which illuminates how King's horror literature as a media form has shifted in relation to cultural understandings over time. Many chapters touch upon how surrounding texts, such as film\/TV adaptations, have played into these mediations throughout King's storied career. For the first-time reader of King, this volume offers a doorway into his works: an array of exciting critical frameworks with which to make sense of King's fictional universe. For literary critics, this volume argues that King's corpus remains a site for robust intellectual inquiry. And for all of us, the book provides an occasion--one that is long overdue--to rethink King's relationship to critical theory as well as his legacy as a major American author. While it may prove impossible to reconcile King and the academy, we might nonetheless explore the evolution of their inescapable bond in hopes of negotiating a greater understanding between them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Blouin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9048559618\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789048559619\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Amsterdam University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/23\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 346\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Michael Blouin","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46526651334911,"sku":"9789048559619","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ee573848-ab93-4ed2-9515-bec9ab15c7a9.jpg?v=1737556785","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/theorizing-stephen-king-michael-blouin-9789048559619","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
