Description
The Jacques Lacan Foundation by Susan Finlay is an Anglo-American comedy of manners that explores identity and class through the lens of academia and authorship. In this novel, the boundaries between pretence and reality are blurred as Nicki Smith navigates her new role at a prestigious institution. With no prior knowledge of French, she tackles the translation of a highly controversial notebook by Jacques Lacan. The result is a witty and insightful portrayal of the institutions that foster academic and literary pretension.
