Exellent, eloquent, elegant... (9/10 people found this helpful)
This essay on the fascinating subject of the horrifying is really worthwhile reading for fans of the mysterious and macabre, or for serious readers interested in textual and contextual problems of the genre(s). Especially her study of Dostojevskij is brilliant!
Uncanny...astonishing... (5/18 people found this helpful)
Kristeva rules... To everyone who has some interest in the ABJECT matter, here's the Bible! Uncanny...
