Robin Romm: The Unsparing Gaze (January 2013)

$5.00

Romm’s lecture discusses two authors who use “the unsparing gaze” toward very different ends.  Edward St. Aubyn’s tragic and autobiographical “Patrick Melrose Novels” explore how childhood incest wreaks havoc on a psyche. Alison Lurie’s comic social satire “The War Between the Tates” skewers gender roles and marriage.  Both authors, Romm observes, “make the most of discomfort, an excellent aim for any artist.”
