内容説明
A critical study of an unusually versatile and accomplished author, discussing at length all the most ambitious novels of William Kotzwinkle. In addition to individual analytical examinations of his most prominent work, including "The Fan Man" and his exceptionally successful adaptation of the film "ET", the study identifies patterns of coherence, recurring themes and subjects, and strategies of comic invention.
目次
- Authority and identity - lunatic horror, wild things, the surreal city and a serpent in the garden
- the book of love - origins of artistic consciousness in "Jack in the Box"
- the realm of childhood - visions of paradise and an imagination of the ideal in "E.T.", "The Leopard's Tooth" and "Hearts of Wood"
- the life and times of a good-natured zany - the artist as musician, mystic, beatnik and freak in "The Fan Man"
- the emergence of evil - darker dimensions of existence in "Doctor Rat", "Fata Morgana" and "The Exile"
- the artist at work - sexual awareness as psychic transformation in "Nightbook" and "The Queen of Swords", limitless childhood as an adult enterprise in "The Midnight Examiner" and "The Hot Jazz Trio"
- Jimmy McShane and a bear from Maine - life beyond the "failure" of the alternate vision of the sixties in "The Game of Thirty" and "The Bear Went Over the Mountain"
- the far shore of the secret sea -refiguring the cartography of coherence in "Superman III", "Great World Circus" and "Swimmer in the Secret Sea".
