1 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Melba toast dryBy kchrisfoxNeedlessly wordy; the writing style is so over-the-top academic one constantly has to drift five lines back -to the beginning of the sentence-to remind oneself of how he began some gem of a clause.The books main thesis boils down to what is simply good acting. Its in responses to academics; Freud himself; and perhaps some poor performances hes seen who apply linear narrative psychology to Rebeccas and Rosmers actions. His point:whatever subconscious speculation you have; the character knows what they know when they discover and say it -not before. They havent known it and hidden it all along.
