Thesis (M.A.)--University of Manitoba (Canada), 2003.

The following creative thesis is composed of a novella, followed a critical postscript. The novella examines the biblical story of Ruth and Naomi, questioning why the story is very seldom read as a romantic love story between two women. It also engages with the research into the paranormal conducted by Lillian and T. G. Hamilton in Winnipeg during the 1920s, using the story of the Hamilton's research to study how haunting functions in the transmission and passage of texts. The novella studies the transmission of stories as they pass through bodies and words. It examines the ruin that lies at the very process of representation, and, while weeping over the ruin of language, the novella also suggests a way of reading and writing that listens to the 'other' who haunts the text. The novella concludes that the ruined space of writing contains a great possibility---it is haunted by the silenced ghosts of the 'other.' Both the novella and the critical postscript conclude that to understand writing as haunted enables one to read and write with a politics that is always searching and listening for the voices of the silenced, oppressed and hidden.
