But because such desire is also unconscious, it can be expressed only indirectly, for what we consciously desire is hardly ever what we really want.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Through its nuanced discussion of Victorian novels, this book pursues the psychoanalytic insight that subjectivity is built on a foundation of wounding and loss. The work of a learned, accomplished critic, Inaugural Wounds engages with current debates in criticism and theory, but it is above all a rich and perceptive literary study.”","brand":"MJ - Ohio University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51038652432727,"sku":"9780821415634","price":44.61,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780821415634.jpg?v=1750940939","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/inaugural-wounds-9780821415634","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
