"Beneath it all Something as yet Unnamed was Coming into Focus": A Queer Reading of Malinda Lo's Ash
Abstract:Malinda Lo's 2009 young adult novel Ash extends the legacy of the "Cinderella" story by transforming the tale through a queer lens. The adaptation's heroine, Ash, must choose between joining the realm of the fairies or remaining amongst the living, as signified by her interest in Sidhean, a male fairy, and Kaisa, a female huntress. I argue that the novel further intertextually and metatextually queers the "Cinderella" story by including nonheteronormative relationships; depicting the queer time of fairy tales, dreams, and the carnivalesque; and demonstrating how certain gender and sexual identities are privileged.
期刊介绍:
Marvels & Tales (ISSN: 1521-4281) was founded in 1987 by Jacques Barchilon at the University of Colorado, Boulder. Originally known as Merveilles & contes, the journal expressed its role as an international forum for folktale and fairy-tale scholarship through its various aliases: Wunder & Märchen, Maravillas & Cuentos, Meraviglie & Racconti, and Marvels & Tales. In 1997, the journal moved to Wayne State University Press and took the definitive title Marvels & Tales: Journal of Fairy-Tale Studies. From the start, Marvels & Tales has served as a central forum for the multidisciplinary study of fairy tales. In its pages, contributors from around the globe have published studies, texts, and translations of fairy-tales from Europe, North America, Asia, and Africa. The Editorial Policy of Marvels & Tales encourages scholarship that introduces new areas of fairy-tale scholarship, as well as research that considers the traditional fairy-tale canon from new perspectives. The journal''s special issues have been particularly popular and have focused on topics such as "Beauty and the Beast," "The Romantic Tale," "Charles Perrault," "Marriage Tests and Marriage Quest in African Oral Literature," "The Italian Tale," and "Angela Carter and the Literary Märchen." Marvels & Tales is published every April and October by Wayne State University Press.
