Drawing on the work of continental thinkers including Jacques Derrida, Jean Luc-Nancy and Hannah Arendt, Yamamoto offers original readings of \u003ci\u003eHeart of Darkness, The Nigger of the 'Narcissus', The Rover \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eSuspense \u003c\/i\u003eand the short stories “The Secret Sharer”, “The Warrior's Soul” and “The Duel”.
