“No, Eat! No, Grow! Shout!
From “salad days” to “meat walls”, M.T. Anderson serves up a four-course meal that is rich with savory and simply irresistible consumerism and corporate power with a dash of data mining and environmental decay. Feed is set in a near-futuristic dystopian society that is completely immersed in the internet and consumer activities controlled by the Corporations. This four-part novel concludes with the expected bittersweet decadent dessert of death, dying that turns sour upon receipt of the check. Who or what is the “Feed”? An analysis of a singular passage found in part three of this scrumptious novel will answer this question and the questions of who is feeding whom, why, and at what cost?

The Light and Dark of Truth
The fairy tale genre has often been associated with childhood and bedtime rituals; with magical images leaping off the page and into the dreams of the sleeping child. "Once Upon a Time" is one of the most famous phrases found in the fairy tale genre and these words uttered aloud conjure up a myriad of images for children and adults alike. Every adult can reflect back on their lives and come up with at least one fairy story in literature or film that was a part of their childhood. Some of these reflections result in fond memories; bringing to life the desire to relive the magic and fantasy found in these beloved tales. Many of these fairy stories began as orated folklore during town or village gatherings, with imagery not well suited to the child. Oscar Wilde, patterned his fairy tales after folklore and that of Hans Christian Anderson; infusing dark imagery and the failings of humankind, as depicted in his publication, The Happy Prince and Other Tales. Contemporary fairy tales specifically written for children, such as The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien, and The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, contain many of the elements found in traditional fairy tales; adding magic and mystery as well as moral and religious themes. The conscientious literary scholar; contemplating this genre, may conclude that even the modern versions of the fairy tale and contemporary renderings still may be directed to the adult audience. Well-known tellers of fairy stories, such as Tolkien, Lewis, and Wilde have stated in some form or fashion that the fairy story is truly intended for the adult audience; and their reasons are connected and varying at the same time.
