Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This novel, originally entitled A Trial of Faith, is an exploration of Shakespeare’s Hamlet in the form of a novel tracing the course of a Kleinian analysis. It is an experiment in literary criticism as much as in fiction, and was written in collaboration with the psychoanalyst Donald Meltzer, who supervised each weekly chapter as it was written, from an analyst’s perspective. The intention was to be faithful to the psychoanalytic process as well as to the aesthetic implications of Shakespeare’s play. The narrator and analyst is Horatio, whom Hamlet in the play asks to “tell his story” – the story of an adolescent break-down. Hamlet as a character invites an unusually close form of identification: as Hazlitt put it, “It is we who are Hamlet.” Horatio’s countertransference as one who is supposed to “suffer all yet suffer nothing” places him in a vulnerable and testing situation that tempts him towards breaches of technique. The novel, like the play (in my view) is structured around a series of dreams that Hamlet recounts to Horatio. Meanwhile the underlying preoccupation with playing-as-reality highlights some intriguing implications of Shakespeare’s own mid-career struggles as a dramatist: concerning the relation between genre, analysand-protagonist and analyst-playwright. The present revised edition of the novel includes a new introduction, some minor changes to the text, and the insertion of more quotations to mark the source of the emotional conflict. Such markers also illustrate the dreamlike and turbulent reading process of writing literary criticism, which entails not the deconstruction but (as was said of Ophelia) the “unshaping” of language in a way that “botches up words to fit the hearer’s own thoughts”. It is for readers to judge whether or not the current botching speaks to their own feelings stirred by Shakespeare’s play and helps to make sense of the reactions aroused in we who are Hamlet.
