Book Synopsis The Power of Smell in American Literature by : Daniela Babilon

In her innovative close readings, the author combines insights from cultural studies, critical race, gender, intersectionality, trauma, and affect theories to show how odor representations are used to oppress people and to subvert discriminatory power structures.
