Liminality And The Short Story: Boundary Crossings In American, Canadian, And British Writing (Routledge Interdisciplinary Perspectives On Literature)

This book is a study of the short story, one of the widest taught genres in English literature, from an innovative methodological perspective. Both liminality and the short story are well-researched phenomena, but the combination of both is not frequent. This innovative collection discusses the relevance of the concept of liminality for the short story genre and for short story cycles, emphasizing theoretical perspectives, methodological relevance and applicability. It focuses on both the liminality of the short story and on liminality in the short story.
