This essay applies Michel Foucault's theory of heterotopia or other place to Anne Michaels's second novel, The Winter Vault , which repeatedly uses "place" as trope and topos . These "counter-sites" in her fiction contest communal and environmental displacements, and help to transform the otherness of her characters from loss to partial belonging
