This is the much-anticipated reimagining of\u00a0<i>Twilight<\/i>\u00a0(2005), by the same author. In this book, Meyer retells the early story of the meeting between Bella Swan and Edward Cullen through a shift from the former&#8217;s limited human gaze to the latter&#8217;s supernatural psychic gaze. This switch in narration radically widens the perspectival scope of the story by placing us within the thoughts of a mind with unmediated access to all Other minds around him, except that of Swan. What implications does this shift have for how we interpret the moral, aesthetic, and cultural value of the Twilight saga as a whole?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You are cordially invited to join us on a cover-to-cover reading of Meyer&#8217;s 2020\u00a0Midnight Sun.
