Mind of the Novel : Reflexive Fiction and the Ineffable, Paperback / softback Book

Mind of the Novel : Reflexive Fiction and the Ineffable Paperback / softback

Part of the Dalkey Archive Scholarly series

Paperback / softback

Description

From Moby-Dick to The Unnamable, from A Tale of a Tub to The Book of Questions, Bruce Kawin explores the nature of self-conscious fiction and compares its structure to that of human consciousness.

Focusing on texts that confront their own limits by trying to name the unnamable, the ineffable self, Kawin draws on methods from literary criticism to systems theory to explain a variety of first-person works that "dance around the ungraspable subject."
