Abstract Details

2011, PhD, University of Cincinnati, Arts and Sciences: English and Comparative Literature.
Toadman and Other Encounters is a collection of short fiction exploring the boundaries of human experience, at times experienced by the reader through narrative boundaries. Questions about what makes us human are framed and echoed by questions about what constitutes a story. In one essay and nineteen stories, Toadman and Other Encounters describes and portrays encounters between humans and each other, humans and animals, humans and texts, meanwhile underscoring these encounters with the encounter between narrative and non-narrative modes, distinct moods and tones, conflicting voices and points of view.
