Care, critique, and contemporary literature: The offerings of Sarah Moss’s Tidal Zone
This article explores what contemporary literature has to offer in the face of the crisis of care and draws some theoretical coordinates for a care-oriented literary criticism.

Longing for the lost (m)other - Postcolonial ambivalences in Arundhati Roy'sThe God of Small Things
Arundhati Roy's novel The God of Small Things is frequently praised for its sensitivity to social injustice and its feminist politics, but it has also been criticized as exoticist and melodramatic.
