Reviews

Well-researched and meticulously argued, Mendicino's book explores how even the most minimal, seemingly immediate experience of the self is marked, traversed by language, putting that very immediacy and everything that follows from it (not least the very notion of identity) into question. - Jan Plug, author of They Have All Been Healed: Reading Robert Walser
