Resumen del libro
López begins working theoretically, taking a largely poststructuralist approach while retaining Freudian and Lacanian perspectives, continues with an assessment of desire as it works within the mechanism of seduction, and an assessment of metamorphosis. The resulting literary reflections on the texts address Carter's exotic Other as a projection of the subject's desire and construction of both dissolution and identity, and Winterson's juxtaposition of fact and fiction and multiplicity of agency.
