Ten green monsters.

Diez monstruos verdes en equilibrio en la parte superior de una pared de ladrillo. Uno por uno,los chicos verdes caen de una manera accidental. Abajo, en el suelo, los monstruos se ayudan mutuamente, comparan magulladuras y se dan cuenta de que sus caídas no fueron accidentales. Cuando por fin el culpable, un monstruo que llevaba una sospechosa sonrisa inocente, se descubre, sus víctimas deciden darle una lección. Las solapas de cada página muestran los monstruos de pie en la pared y luego en el suelo.

Monsters: monstrous identities in young adult romance

Monstrous identities in fantasy for young adults often function as metaphors for cultural tensions about romantic and sexual relations between young people, and about how the young interact with the generation that precedes them. This essay considers four monster figures prevalent in Young Adult (YA) fantasy: the vampire, the werewolf, the monstrous mother, and the monstrous father and analyses their manifestation in YA romances by Robin McKinley, Stephenie Meyer, L. K. Smith and Maggie Stiefvater. It considers what these representations tell us about cultural anxieties over the sexuality of young women, and how they are positioned as reading subjects.
