This volume addresses its reader after Covid, a time when the distinction between“the fantastic” or “the virtual” and “the real” was blurred and what man would havethought to be a part of an American science fiction movie, became a real experience.A viral attack blocking life globally and a half online life experience thereafter... Whileeach essay, in their specific contexts, explores “the nonhuman bodies”, it should beonce again noted that this volume was inspired by all of the inhabitants of the Worldthat are inevitably connected by geographical relation and physical interaction aswell as through collective traumas incorporated into individual stories.The essays in this volume focus on the relationship between human and nonhumanbodies while offering in-depth analyses and various insights on their specificsubjects, exploring transformed contexts, literary traditions, and genres, guided byrich theoretical engagements with posthumanism, ecocriticism, and digital humanities.As our writers’ essays speak to one another, the whole collection reflects on thenotion of “connection” within the universe.
