520 1  $a "In this volume, Daniel Erickson offers the first comparative treatment of Toni Morrison's Beloved and Gabriel Garcia Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude. Erickson's analysis pivots on the analogous deployments of the ghost-figure in both texts. He argues that ghosts, while ostensibly fanciful and ornamental, in fact make palpable the ways in which history can be transfigured, haunted, and masked, and so provoke a personal, political response to the historical traumas of the Americas. This study challenges postmodernist and magical-realist accounts by reinstating the centrality of metaphor in persuasive, parallel readings of two iconic examples of modern fiction."--BOOK JACKET.
