Kübler, Martina, author. White male disability in modernist literature : reading Lawrence, Hemingway, and Faulkner / by Martina Kübler. Reading Lawrence, Hemingway, and Faulkner Leiden ; Boston : Brill, [2023] 1 online resource text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource rdacarrier Costerus New Series ; 233 Includes bibliographical references and index. Description based on print version record. This study explores the representation of disability in three of the most well-known novels of the twentieth century, D.H. Lawrence’s Lady Chatterley’s Lover (1928), Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises (1926), and William Faulkner’s The Sound and the Fury (1929). By signifying cultural demise and a loss of masculinity, white male disability in the literature of the 1920s represents a fear of a foundering patriarchal, white supremacist world order. However, if we take seriously what queer and disability studies have advanced, disabled bodies in literature can also help us redefine life and love in the modern era: forcing us to imagine possibilities outside of our comfort zones, they help us reimagine the elusive myth of independent, self-sufficient human existence.
