NEOLIBERAL DARLINGS: THE COMMODIFICATION OF GROTESQUE CHILDREN IN CONTEMPORARY COMICS AND LITERATURE by Mark Heimermann A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee May 2016 ABSTRACT NEOLIBERAL DARLINGS: THE COMMODIFICATION OF GROTESQUE CHILDREN IN CONTEMPORARY COMICS AND LITERATURE by Mark Heimermann The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2016 Under the Supervision of Professor Peter Sands This dissertation analyzes grotesque depictions of children in contemporary, speculative comics and literature: Katherine Dunn’s Geek Love, Kazuo Ishiguro’s Never Let Me Go, Jeff Lemire’s Sweet Tooth, Ben Marcus’ The Flame Alphabet, and Richard Starkings’ Elephantmen. It argues that the grotesque in these texts embodies the tension between children as economic objects and children as social beings, as the protagonists’ nonhuman elements are used to justify their commodification.

  • Summaries of Book Club Kit Titles “A”
    Summaries of Book Club Kit Titles “A” Alchemist, The – Paula Coelho Every few decades a book is published that changes the lives of its readers forever. The Alchemist is such a book. With over a million and a half copies sold around the world, The Alchemist has already established itself as a modern classic, universally admired. Paulo Coelho's charming fable, now available in English for the first time, will enchant and inspire an even wider audience of readers for generations to come. The Alchemist is the magical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure as extravagant as any ever found. From his home in Spain he journeys to the markets of Tangiers and across the Egyptian desert to a fateful encounter with the alchemist. The story of the treasures Santiago finds along the way teaches us, as only a few stories have done, about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, learning to read the omens strewn along life's path, and, above all, following our dreams. Added before December 2010 Alice I Have Been – Melanie Benjamin Part love story, part literary mystery, Melanie Benjamin’s spellbinding historical novel leads readers on an unforgettable journey down the rabbit hole, to tell the story of a woman whose own life became the stuff of legend. Her name is Alice Liddell Hargreaves, but to the world she’ll always be known simply as “Alice,” the girl who followed the White Rabbit into a wonderland of Mad Hatters, Queens of Hearts, and Cheshire Cats.

The editor and the publisher would like to thank Matthew Forsythe for allowing them to use an image from his graphic novel Jinchalo for the cover. Discussed in detail in Laura Pearson’s chapter in this volume, the image shows the child protagonist, Voguchi, fascinated by and merging with the plant and animal life around her. The image poetically captures this volume’s concerns with disentangling—and re-entangling—the connections between children and animals in comics.
