	On “Borrowing” Readers/Users Bodies for Immersion into the (Not Only Literary) Memory Spaces

	The aim of this article is to study (mainly but not only) literary works that “borrow” users/readers bodies in order to create immersive memory spaces, i.e. that engage haptic interactions with texts as the sine qua non of entering the narrated story-worlds. To depict the broader context authors characterize the general strategy of immersion based on haptic experience of the work (metaphorically described as “borrowing of the user’s body”), seen in various media and different forms of storytelling, from traditional literary second person narratives to VR/XR experiences. Then authors focus on two e-literary examples (WuWu&Co and Maginary) in order to analyse how the reader’s gestures or his/her whole body can be incorporated into the act of reading. The purpose of introducing aforementioned case-studies is to point out the importance of elaborating actual discussions on haptic poetics of e-literary works. The paper ends with a close reading of Pry (by Samantha Gorman and Danny Cannizzaro), the case study that provides a perfect example of “borrowing e-reader’s body” in order to immerse him/her in the memory space that is co-created by the protagonist’s memories and the reader’s gestures.
