    Expanded and updated edition of The Writer’s Fugue, with an additional 80 page section updating Skilbeck’s research into writers in exile, and those held in Australian-run detention centres, including Behrouz Boochani; and also the Australian poet and dramaturg émigré Christopher Barnett, in France.Dr Ruth Skilbeck chronicles the morphology of the word fugue in music, psychology and literature in Part 1 of The Writer's Fugue, the book based on her PhD, then in Part 2, offers fine-grained analyses of literary fugues by Thomas de Quincey, Marcel Proust, James Joyce, Paul Celan and Sylvia Plath in biographical, historical, social and cultural contexts. Skilbeck finds that each of them turned to musical form in writing of traumatic experiences of loss of loved ones, war, exile, and concentration camps.
