This study is the first in-depth analysis of McKinleys works, including her award-winning books The Blue Sword (Newbery Honor, 1983) and The Hero and the Crown (Newberry Medal, 1985).In Robin McKinley: Girl Reader, Woman Writer, Evelyn Perry examines McKinleys novels and short stories as grouped into three categories: those set in Damar, which introduce and develop the rich geographic, social, political, and linguistic history of McKinleys secondary world; the retellings of folk and fairy tales, which reveal not only McKinleys encyclopedic knowledge of source stories but her respectful and highly literate approach to their contemporary adaptation; and her other works, less easily categorized but generally most recent, written for more mature readers, and featuring a diverse set of influences from vampires to homeopathy. Perry also explores the feminist articulation of character and social settings that are dominant themes running through McKinleys works.Anyone interested in Robin McKinley and her work, including secondary and post-secondary students, faculty, and librarians, will find Robin McKinley: Girl Reader, Woman Writer a valuable resource....2473793Robin McKinley377397https://www.gandhi.com.mx/robin-mckinley-9780810877443/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3768888/ead9f358-cfaf-4413-9aff-7037a9b036a3.jpg?v=638385846490800000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20109780810877443_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_Since her first book, Beauty: A Retelling of the Story of Beauty and the Beast, was published in 1978, Robin McKinley has enchanted young adult readers for more than thirty years.
