  • 106 Chapter Iii the New Face of Incest?
    CHAPTER III THE NEW FACE OF INCEST?: RACE, CLASS, AND THE CONTROVERSY OVER KATHRYN HARRISON’S THE KISS 1 In 1997 Kathryn Harrison published a memoir, The Kiss , which documents her four- year sexual relationship with her father. She was already a writer of considerable renown by then, with three highly acclaimed novels to her credit. Two of these novels also take incest as their subject, and both netted accolades, among them a coveted spot in the annual New York Times Notable Books list; a third book, about a sexually suspect although not outright incestuous relationship between a girl and her father, similarly garnered praise from the critics. 2 Harrison’s memoir, by contrast, netted unprecedented controversy, including a host of singularly negative reviews. As one reviewer observes, the accusations leveled against Harrison in the wake of The Kiss have been legion, among them “dishonesty, opportunism, careerism, greed, exhibitionism, narcissism, selfishness, coyness, self-plagiarism and—the ultimate insult—bad mothering” (Linfield). 3 When it comes to accounting for the cloud of critical disfavor hovering over Harrison’s memoir, what the reviewers themselves say, not surprisingly, is that the book is 1 Part of this chapter is based on my article of the same name. 2 The two incest novels are Thicker Than Water and Poison . Exposure , a narrative about a woman who was, as a child, the subject of her artist father’s erotic photographs, does not feature the act of incest, but delves into the damaging effects of incestuous desire. 3 Harrison also has a number of staunch defenders, especially among other writers.

I must admit, the introduction is really pretty banal. But where are my good manners? I must introduce myself first – I'm the genie of Alghabra, and I'm at your service. You know, for me there are two types of beings: people, also known as mortals, or magical creatures like me. I've always been a genie and my daily life is awfully busy – I grant many and various wishes (usually mortals') or I spend years in solitude and oblivion... But I won't take up any more of your time with my misfortunes. I know what you're thinking, "He's a genie, isn't he? He's obliged to grant our wishes." Most of my masters have thought so, too, and I've had thousands of them for the past centuries. I might be one of the oldest magical creatures on Earth.

    A COMPREHENSIVE TEACHING GUIDE TO THE WORKS OF GAYLE FORMAN DISCUSSION QUESTIONS, WRITING PROMPTS, AND EXTENSION ACTIVITIES ALIGNED TO COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS FOR GRADES 9-10. DEAR EDUCATOR: In our multi-layered, multi-connected society, the books teens are choosing to read are not only more likely to have an impact on their thoughts and actions, they are also more likely to share those thoughts and express those actions than ever before. Gayle Forman’s books are wonderfully vivid, layered, and rich with the sort of emotions that today’s teen feels. The content in her novels is perfect for a small or large class discussion, an independent reading assignment, or a creative writing task. The questions and activities in this guide align with Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts for grades 9-10, but Standards for other grades may also apply. Gayle Forman’s books are usually rec- ommended for ages 14 and up, but most of these questions and activities can be easily adapted for middle school readers. Gayle Forman’s books are popular with teens due to their themes of love, romance, heartbreak, friendship and fate. Using discussion questions, writing prompts and activities, this guide helps educators use her books to encourage students to dig deeper: to read closely, to evaluate what they’ve read, to participate in class discussions and to complete individual writing and creative projects. About the Author Gayle Forman is an award-winning author and journalist whose articles have appeared in numerous publications, including Seventeen, Cosmopolitan, The Nation, and The New York Times.
