About
Moving away from traditional studies of Gothic domesticity based on symbolism, Andrew Hock Soon Ng instead focuses on domestic space's material presence and the traces it leaves on the human subjects inhabiting it. Discussing contemporary novels by Angela Carter, Valerie Martin, Toni Morrison, and Janice Galloway; films such as The Exorcist, Repulsion, The Others, and The Orphanage; and Alison Bechdel's groundbreaking autobiographical work, Fun Home, within a framework of psychoanalysis, phenomenology, and spatial and architectural theories, this book reveals the complicated relationship between the house and the female subject.
