“I Wanna Do Bad Things [to] You:” Complicating Representations of Southern Women and Cultural “Others” in Absalom, Absalom! and True Blood

In 'I Wanna Do Bad Things [to] You:' Complicating Representations of Southern Women and Cultural “Others” in Absalom, Absalom! and True Blood" I examine how issues of gender and race are portrayed in southern gothic works. In particular, I look at how systemic racial and gender prejudices uniquely tied to the culture of the American south continue to haunt readers and viewers.
