The novelist and critic Christine Brooke-Rose reflects on her own
fictional craft and turns her well-developed analytic abilities on
other writers fictional and critical, from Hawthorne to Pound to
Bloom and Derrida, in an attempt to investigate those difficult
border zones between the 'invented' and the 'real'. The result is
an extended meditation in a highly personal idiom, on the creative
act and its relation to modern theoretical writing and thinking.
Like her fiction, Professor Brooke-Rose's criticism is
self-consciously experimental, trying out and discarding ideas,
adopting others. Her linguistic prowess, her uncommon role as a
recognised writer of fiction and theory and the relevance of her
work to the feminist and other other movements, all contribute to
the interest of this unusual sequence of essays.
