Book Overview

Family Plots traces the fault lines of the Freudian family romance and holds that the family plot is very much alive in post-World War II American culture. It cuts across all genres, insinuating, criticizing, reinforcing, and reinventing itself in all forms of cultural production and consumption. The family romance is everywhere because the family itself is nowhere.
