Caracteristici

A timely contribution to current scholarly debates about the ideological representation of digital technology in young adult fiction Offers a compelling narrative of how digital life shapes young people's identity and activism through readings of a range of authors such as Salman Rushdie, Cory Doctorow, and Julie Ann Peters Engages the critical contemporary issue of posthumanism by providing a sophisticated reading of the complex intersection of young adult bodies with the non-organic.
