Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. American Modernist Fiction: Psychoanalytic Recitations of Identity addresses five American Modernist novels in light of Lacanian psychoanalytic theory: Nathanael West's Miss Lonelyhearts, Kay Boyle's Process, Djuna Barnes's Nightwood, Thornton Wilder's The Cabala, and F. Scott Fitzgerald's Tender Is the Night. Dolis's dynamic readings constitute a spirited "performance" of the narrative, deploying his own innovative form of literary analysis, what he calls "performance criticism". These psychoanalytic studies simultaneously stage the narrative and re-enact its putative significance, provoke and question its intent, thereby establishing a dialectics of desirewhat both affects the body of the narrative and, equally, the critic's subjectivity. 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."
