Today’s episode features an interview with Lydia Cooper and Matthew Reznicek, the guest editors of a brand new special issue of Studies in the Novel focusing on “Disease and Disability.”
As they say in their introduction, “This special issue offers critical insights into the way the novel as a form intertwines, disaggregates, confounds, and represents the embodied experience of disability and disease.” With articles that consider Nathanael Hawthorne, Ling Ma, Toni Morrison, Somerset Maugham, Wilkie Collins, and more, this discussion sets the stage for a can’t-miss issue of studies in the way novels can challenge and broaden "our understanding of how and why novelistic discourse is uniquely capable of representations of disease and disability”
