520    Hosting the Monster responds to the call of the monstrous 
       with, not rejection, but invitation. Positing the monster 
       as that which defies classification, the essays in this 
       collection are an ongoing engagement with that which lies 
       outside of established boundaries. With chapters ranging 
       from the monstrous mother or the deformed child to 
       subjectivity in transition, this volume is not only of 
       interest to film and gender scholars and literary and 
       cultural theorists but also students of popular culture or
       horror. Its wide appeal stems from its invitation both to 
       entertain the monster and to widen t.
