Through veganism's relation to utopian longing and challenge to the conceptual category of the 'human,' the book explores ways in which ethical identities can be written, represented, and transmitted.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe impact of Reading Veganism goes far beyond the works that Quinn studies, inviting further reparative vegan readings, and raising questions about the purported stability of human subjectivities. Quinn asks her readers to reckon with how they construct and enact identities of consumption; Reading Veganism offers new ways of recognizing and acknowledging the power dynamics in our entanglements with nonhuman animals. * Alba Elliott, Humanimalia  *\u003cbr\u003eEmelia Quinn's recent monograph The Monstrous Vegan: Reading Veganism in Literature, 1818 to Present is both timely and theoretically refreshing as the field of Vegan Studies continues to distinguish itself and calls for its own space as culturally and historically significant as well as markedly unique from contemporary conceptions of Animal Studies more generally. * Laura Wright, Western Carolina University *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction: The Monstrous Vegan Part I 1: Mary Shelley and the Conception of the Monstrous Vegan 2: H.G.
