Reviews
This provocative and engaging study maps the transformation of the horror genre in the aftermath of 9/11, arguing that the hopelessness characterizing contemporary horror reflects the psychological and social impact of terrorism on American culture. Wetmore makes important links between the fear of terrorism and horror films, and he demonstrates-quite compellingly-that the horror genre has been one of the most effective tools for making sense of real terror. --Thomas Fahy, editor of The Philosophy of Horror and author of Sleepless and The Unspoken

I’m kind of grossed out. I went out of my way to find a copy of Lolita without a cover of a young girl or anything suggestive bc it’s a story about … yeah. So I bought it specifically for the cover. The book comes in and the cover is the complete opposite of what I wanted and the exact thing I didn’t want. I feel gross looking at it and my first thought was “I’m gonna rip the cover off this”. It’s in good condition otherwise but I’m kind of upset
