This book examines Elfriede Jelinek's investigation of Austria's
and Western Europe's "obscene fantasies" through her "perversion"
of generic forms in three of her best-known texts (Die
Liebhaberinnen, Lust, and Die Klavierspielerin). Each chapter
investigates a central psychoanalytic concept (alienation,
jouissance, perversion, and sublimation) and reads a Jelinek text
in relation to the genre that it is perverting, exposing the
"obscene fantasies" that lie at its heart. This book argues that
the disruption of genres is one of Jelinek's most significant
literary contributions, with her works functioning to create a
"negative aesthetics" as opposed to a positive reworking of generic
forms.
