Buch in NEUWERTIGEM, UNGELESENEN SAMMLERZUSTAND, Not I Kazuo Ishiguro and the Politics of Misrecognition takes a closer look at how Ishiguros narrators deal with their metaphorical parents, their literary ancestors from Hamlet to Alfred Prufrock. Ishiguros narrators unwittingly express a metafictional concern about their existence in the shadows of English literary history and struggle with an imagined pressure to compete with iconic literary characters. This book traces their narrative anxiety against a variety of other canonical intertexts by William Shakespeare, Charlotte Brontë, Charles Dickens, George Eliot and T. S. Eliot and takes a closer look at the narrators narrative strategy of repression.
