Abstract

This essay examines Tanya Huff's Blood Price and Charlaine Harris's Dead Until Dark through the lenses of Disability and Feminist Studies to suggest that in these works disability functions as a reclamation of the female body--which has often been viewed as "always and already" deformed--even as it contributes to the reinvention of the vampire romance genre.
