| Summary: | This paper entitled throwing it up: on the meaningful abjects in James Freys a Million Little Pieces is a study on the different abjects presented in James Freys memoir using Julia Kristevas theory of abjection. The abjects in this study vary from physical excrements such as human waste and production to social outcasts and women. Using the theory of abjection this paper aims to understand societys perception and reaction to the various abjects and how individuals can consciously challenge them. Through this study, we are also presented the various ways that society confines us and constructs our views on the abject. |
