"This stimulating and wide-ranging collection resituates psychoanalysis firmly in the contemporary world. A series of brilliantly conceived and complementary chapters---on adolescence and asylum, Freud's magic carpet and medieval dreams, primetime TV and the psychoanalytic animal, translation and teaching (to name only a few)---builds a powerful case for the continuing purchase of psychoanalytic thought on literary and cultural studies today."
