Disrupted Narratives

Emma Bond

About this book

Italo Svevo, Giorgio Pressburger and Giuliana Morandini all make use of individual 'infected' or suppressed voices which unfold through illness so as to cast doubt on a more dominant narrative standpoint. Here, Emma Bond offers a critical reading of the literary function of illness, a function related to the nature of narration itself.
