The Object Subject
"The literary attack on the concept of a remembered self
comes principally from three directions:
(1) the brokenness of memory,
(2) the difficulty of affirming that all memories pertain to
the same self; and
(3) the impossibility of pretending that a subject is an object.
All three of these attacks tend to dissolve the self, to expose it
as fictitious, artificial, quaintly contrived."
