Description

Terrorist attacks, war, and mass shootings by individuals occur on a daily basis all over the world.

In The Homesick Phone Book, author Cynthia Haynes examines the relationship of rhetoric to such atrocities.

Aiming to disrupt conventional modes of rhetoric, logic, argument, and the teaching of writing, Haynes illuminates rhetoric’s ties to horrific acts of violence and the state of perpetual conflict around the world, both in the Holocaust era and more recently.

Ultimately, The Homesick Phone Book demonstrates how scholars of rhetoric and writing studies can break their dependence on conventional argument and logic to discover what might be possible if we dive into and become lost within the very concepts and events that frighten and terrorize us.
