商品簡介
Conducting readings of Stephen King's novel The Dark Half (1989) and novella Secret Window, Secret Garden (1990), both of which "stage a fictitious writer and his doppelganger engaged in a quest for identity through writing," Landais (Purdue U.) applies literary analysis methods such as narratology, psychoanalysis, and postmodernism to question the critical distinction in Stephen King's work between "horror fiction" and "fantastic fiction" and their relationship to the concept of "metafiction."
