Description
An examination of selected 20th century works of fiction that deal with the social or psychological outcast(s). We will focus on each author's construction of narrative, point of view, characterization, language and imagery. Questions regarding alternative versus traditional morality, the differentiation between marginal versus mainstream ethos will also be central to our investigations. Works studied include: "Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas", "Girl Interrupted", "American Psycho", "One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest" and "Lolita."
