Note
Summary: "Fuzzy Traumas examines human-animal relationships in contemporary Japanese literature. Covering euthanasia, guide dogs, the supernatural, disability, and cyborg Marxism, Grillo argues that anthropomorphism is a form of "productive error" that opens the possibility of self-reflection on the concepts of "humanity" and "animality.""--Provided by publisher
