Reviews and Endorsements
The sheer breadth of the project is impressive, introducing to me, and I’m sure many other potential readers, new thinkers and works in both literature and psychoanalysis.
William Simms, author of Obscenity, Psychoanalysis and Literature
I know of no other book that surveys this material in quite such an elegant and artful manner or that takes up this topic with such clinical and writerly sensibilities. The theme of traumatic loss is clearly crucial in this exploration of the literary unconscious; this book will be a vital reference text for a psychoanalytic and clinical readership.
Derek Hook, Associate Professor of Psychology and a clinical supervisor at Duquesne University, Pittsburgh, USA
