Blog series at Wallaby

Every now and then I post a series of posts. In order to make it a bit easier to find them, I’m listing them here.

The duty of fiction writers to tell the truth

This is a series about Jodi Picoult’s use of false rape allegations in two of her books. The series poses the question: do writers of fiction have a duty to pay attention to the sterotypes and assumptions they use in their writing?
