While more difficult elements of his work have often been the subject of scholarly attention, the tendency amongst critics writing on Vonnegut is to disavow them, or to subsume them within a liberal humanist framework. When Vonneguts work is read from a posthumanist perspective, however, the productive paradoxes of his work are more fully realised. Drawing on New Materialist, Eco-Critical and Systems Theory methodologies, this book highlights posthumanist themes in six of Vonneguts most famous novels, and emphasises the ways in which Vonnegut troubles human\/non-human, natural\/artificial, and material\/discursive hierarchical binaries\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51819370119456,"sku":"NEW036785855X","price":240.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81bHO5h75PL.jpg?v=1781131366","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/posthumanism-in-the-novels-of-kurt-vonnegut-routledge-research-in-american-literature-and-culture-036785855x","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
