To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For me, the opening of Ghost Trio suggests a cold, sterile, and insecure environment. A "faint [female] voice" introduces us to F's chamber as if she were introducing us to his friends (perhaps she is) . I note that here, as in Eh Joe , a female voice suggests to me Winnicott's female element of being and spurs my thoughts to F's sense of existence. We first see the entire room, then a close-up of the floor (noting the dust) , the wall (again noting the dust) , the door with "no knob" (248) , t...he "opaque" (248) window, and the pallet. The barrage of language in Eh Joe is here at first replaced with a barrage of things, cold, dusty, impenetrable things. Is this a definition of F's external world? Or is it a definition of F's internal world? Horney theorizes that neurotic claims are developed when the individual has to account for the discrepancies and indignities he feels he suffers from the intrusion of the real world on his idealized self. "The reality outside [the neurotic does 186 not] treat him as though it found him godlike" (40) .
