Publisher's note

Invoking psychoanalysis as the principal discourse of dislocation, this book not only uses concepts such as 'screen memory', 'family romance', 'fantasy' and 'the uncanny' as hermeneutic foils, it also argues that, in their own ways, the arch-parodists Hitchcock and Nabokov are remarkably in tune with the images and tropes developed by Freud.

Short Desription

This book makes an important contribution to cultural analysis by opening up the work of two canonical authors to issues of exile and migration. Straumann's close reading of selected films and literary texts focuses on Speak, Memory, Lolita, The Real Life of Sebastian Knight, Suspicion, North by Northwest and Shadow of a Doubt.
