In Language And In Love: Marguerite Duras: The Unspeakable (scripta Humanistica) [Hardcover]

This collection of eight critical essays on the modern French novelist (selected from a session devoted to her at the 1991 MLA meeting) employs contemporary theory to examine the unspeakable in relation to postmodern (and classical) issues of desire and language: textuality, selfhood, femininity, psychoanalysis, madness, ontology, and mythology.
