Description

The interrelationship and interaction between space and subject has been an important topic in that it sheds light on how space is shaped by the subject as well as how subject is formed in and through space. This reciprocal relation is one of the topics that is analyzed by the French philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari in their work Capitalism and Schizophrenia. Space, which the subject occupies, is not free from flows of desire and schizophrenia-a term that gains a new meaning in Deleuze and Guattari's writings. This book provides a comparative study of three novels, The Music of Chance by Paul Auster, Martin Dressler by Steven Millhauser and The Museum of Innocence by Orhan Pamuk. These novels present characters who can be called "schizo-nomads" in Deleuze and Guattari's words and they create architectural structures through their flows of desire. A comparative study of these works show that there is a relationship between the schizophrenic subject and postmodern space. This work can be useful to anyone else who has an interest in architecture, literature and who wants to see how the two meet at fictional spaces of Auster, Millhauser and Pamuk.
