“We all like to think we’ve saved somebody:” Sex Trafficking in Literature

Check out this article:

By Donna M. Bickford

Abstract
This essay considers the potential impact of sex trafficking narratives and their relationship to public perception and social change efforts.  It fuses literary criticism and cultural analysis to discuss multiple genres of texts, including mainstream news media reports and two categories of novels about sex trafficking.  Finally, it argues for the power of narrative to catalyze and influence actions designed to eradicate sex trafficking.
