Beskrivelse
Summary:This article focuses on Louis Wolfson’s second book, Ma mère, musicienne, est morte de maladie maligne à minuit, mardi à mercredi, au milieu du mois de mai Mille977 au mouroir Memorial à Manhattan, published in French in 1984, and emphasizes its characteristic ambivalence, which is perceptible at all levels—type of narrative, subject matter, author, narrator, language, etc. Wolfson’s singular narrative is characterized by all sorts of tensions and splits, and actually offers a reflection of the author’s schizophrenia. Therefore it denies traditional categories such as pathography (suggested by its title) and psychopathological narrative. But the notion of “anomalie,” as it was defined by Canguilhem and taken up again by Deleuze, can account for this borderline work and its no less borderline author.
