It draws together the fields of postcolonial fiction and narrative ethics and suggests original modes of engagement between readers and books that promise new ways of looking at the world.
Joanne Lipson Freed is Assistant Professor of English at Oakland University.
"The beautifully written Haunting Encounters addresses itself to one of the most crucial literary questions of the current age: What does it mean to read ethically in a world shaped by savage inequalities and robust differences? Joanne Lipson Freed’s writing is graceful and elegant, her close readings deft and attentive. This book could spark productive classroom discussions on the ethics of particular narrative strategies and the social impact of undergraduate reading."
Sue J. Kim, UMass Lowell, author of On Anger:
""Haunting Encounters takes seriously the ethics of reading narratives across cultures. In this smart and and eloquent book, Joanne Lipson Freed deliberately chooses texts from a range of cultures, nations, standpoints, and media to focus attention on the specific strategies used to cultivate ethical understanding.""
