By employing corporeal narratology as a conceptual framework, it sheds light on Wallace's profound exploration of the human body and its societal implications. Through detailed analysis, the book reveals how Wallace's narratives serve as a critique of contemporary issues such as self-alienation, consumerism, and the dehumanizing effects of modern society. Designed for scholars and students of literature, cultural studies, and narrative theory, this book provides a comprehensive understanding of Wallace's literary legacy and his keen observations on the complexities of human existence in the modern world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Xiaomeng Wan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53652799324487,"sku":"9789819680627","price":106.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/5455\/2903\/files\/corporeal-narrative-in-david-foster-wallaces-ficti-ebook-cover.webp?v=1775382203"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/5455\/2903\/collections\/xiaomeng-wan-autor-kollektion.webp?v=1775382201","url":"https:\/\/www.cinebuch.de\/collections\/xiaomeng-wan.oembed","provider":"CineBuch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
