Reading Alcoholisms: Theorizing Character and Narrative in Selected Novels of Hardy, Joyce and Woolf - Couverture rigide
Synopsis
This cross-disciplinary study uses social, psychological, and scientific literature on alcoholism to examine the novels of Hardy, Joyce, and Woolf. Each of these authors was directly effected by the alcololism of a family member or memor, and this book seeks to show how the effects of alcoholism organized their texts. The author of the book argues that without an understanding of the multi-dimensional nature of alcoholism and the transmission of its effects across generations, an analysis of the work of these three literary icons is incomplete.
