Religion and Identity in the Post-9/11 Vampire: God Is (Un)Dead by Christina Wilkins
English | 2 Jun. 2018 | ISBN: 3319771485 | 208 Pages | PDF (True) | 2.24 MB

This book offers a unique argument for the emergence of a post-9/11 vampire that showcases changing perspectives on identity and religion in American culture, offering a look at how cultural narratives can be used to work through trauma. Cultural narratives have long played a valuable role in mediating difficult and politically sensitive topics. Christina Wilkins addresses how the figure of the vampire is used in modern narratives and how it has changed from previous incarnations, particularly in American narratives.
