This general issue of Mosaic features nine essays in English and French. Psychoanalysis is a commonly considered theory in this issue, with essays on the “psychohistorical mode” of Joyce Carol Oates’s Wonderland and the psychanalytic function of “play” in D.H. Lawrence’s Sons and Lovers. Also included, among others, are essays on Jacques Ferron’s Les grands soleils, the novels of Tom Robbins, and Chaucer.
