More about the book

The book explores the unsettling impact of literature on readers, highlighting Julia Kristeva's fascination with the extremes of language and psyche. Anna Smith delves into how literature can alienate individuals, transforming distressing experiences through the "alchemical properties of words." By examining these transformations, Smith reveals Kristeva's concept of literature as a means of transcending conventional representation, creating a dynamic interplay between language and emotional states.
