Book Description
This book investigates how popular American literature and film transformed the poisonous woman from a misogynist figure used to exclude women and minorities from political power into a feminist hero used to justify the expansion of their public roles. Sara Crosby locates the origins of this metamorphosis in Uncle Tom’s Cabin where Harriet Beecher Stowe applied an alternative medical discourse to revise the poisonous Cassy into a doctor. The newly “medicalized” poisoner then served as a focal point for two competing narratives that envisioned the American nation as a multi-racial, egalitarian democracy or as a white and male supremacist ethno-state. Crosby tracks this battle from the heroic healers created by Stowe, Mary Webb, Oscar Micheaux, and Louisia May Alcott to the even more monstrous poisoners or “vampires” imagined by E. D. E. N. Southworth, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Theda Bara, Thomas Dixon, Jr., and D. W. Griffith.

Another fantastic read! Klasky blends magic, humour, awesome plot and loveable characters into a terrific read. — Goodreads Reviewer RJ Jane Madison's life is perfect. She's left her unsatisfying librarian job, moved to the country with her boyfriend David Montrose (who is her sworn astral protector), and opened a school for witches. Alas, Jane never thought teaching a couple of students would be so challenging. And she didn’t expect Hecate’s Court to mandate a Major Working by Halloween. She never imagined her feline familiar would grow disenchanted with all things magical. Worst of all, though, she never dreamed that she and David would fight about every single aspect of living and teaching together. Can Jane find a survival guide in time to rescue the Jane Madison Academy—and her relationship with David?
