- Summary:
- This book addresses five American Modernist novels in light of Lacanian psychoanalytic theory. Deploying his own innovative form of literary analysis, what he calls "performance criticism," Dolis (psycho)analyzes the narrative unconscious of each text to excavate a discourse "other" than the story being "told.".
