| Abstract
|
:
|
Tony Williams traces the roots of literary naturalism from Emile Zola through Steven King and on to George A. Romero, the subject of this study. Romero's work is synonymous with horror but the potency of it goes beyond the normal 'splatter movie' model. This volume offers an in-depth study of Romero and his oeuvre
