Elizabeth Bowen's Psychoanalytic Fiction - Victoria Coulson - Bog

Fuses historical and psychoanalytic perspectives to offer a provocative and original analysis of Elizabeth Bowen's fiction This book provides a new account of Bowen's fiction that highlights in particular the force and originality of Bowen's virtually psychoanalytic thinking about development, sexuality and gender. Focusing on the relationship between Bowen's work and the socio-political matrix from which it emerges, Coulson presents a psychoanalytic literary interpretation informed by biographical, cultural and political contextualisation.
