Sabrina Reed is a Professor of English at Mount Royal University, where she has been teaching Canadian Literature since 1993. Her research considers intersections between Canadian literature and critical disability studies, examining how authors approach depictions of mental illness and physical disabilities in an ableist society. In recent publications, she has investigated such diverse topics as ageism in Margaret Atwood's "Torching the Dusties," pain management in Catherine Bush's Claire's Head, drug addiction in Eden Robinson's Blood Sports, and enhancement technologies in Timothy Findlay's Headhunter. She is currently writing a monograph on Miriam Toews.
