SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Indo-Guyanese novelist David Dabydeen's work is the subject of this dissertation. His six novels up to date, The Intended (1991), Disappearance (1993), The Counting House (1996), A Harlot's Progress (1999), Our Lady of Demerara (2004), and Molly and the Muslim Stick (2008), are the texts chosen for my research, although I will touch upon additional works of his nonfiction, edited books and poetry collections. I will contextualize the author's extremely sexualized world view, as well as his very negative depiction of women in these texts through social history and psychoanalytic interpretation.
