With the theoretical proposal of Buber, considering the social context from the world view of the disease, this leads to relationships of suffering and anguish, but with dialogue among the people who live with this disease it is observed in specific cases of chronic disease. Likewise, the panorama of the problem is the interaction between the social being and the disease, in order to generate a dialogue between the disease and the women who live daily this condition.展开更多

This novel has been studied from many perspectives at home and abroad, including feminism, psychoanalysis, postcolonialism, spatial criticism, etc. In recent years, more and more scholars have paid attention to the complicated and diverse narration of this novel, but few scholars have studied its polyphonic features. This paper tries to explore the polyphonic features of this novel from its diverse narration and the subjectivity of the female protagonist Mary Turner by applying Bakhtin’s polyphonic theory.展开更多
