Freaks in Late Modernist American Culture
Freaks in Late Modernist American Culture explores the emergence of what Nancy Bombaci terms “late modernist freakish aesthetics” – a creative fusion of “high” and “low” themes and forms in relation to distorted bodies. This narrative perspective subverts and reinvents high modernist literary and social ideologies.
