While Filou ran a mental health clinic for jails--and inaugurated an award-winning program for Suffolk County, New York--she began studying Spanish to help her communicate with inmates. That led to a doctorate in Hispanic languages and literature. Retired now, she remains active literary scholarship, and here she examines how Rossi confronts the established psychoanalytic theory that marginalizes women. She shows how the exiled Uruguayan writer structures her prose to give free expression to desire and passion that emanate from the forbidden recesses of the unconscious, as a challenge to the more rational, controlled elements important to traditional and patriarchal society. She has not indexed her work. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
