Publisher's Synopsis
Drawing on the texts of Derrida, Deleuze, Levinas, and Heidegger, Wolfreys (English, U. of Dundee) examines a variety of films, novels, and poetry to draw attention to the ways in which texts appear to resist acts of reading by seemingly "performing" their own idiomatic and wayward identities.
