The article consists of two main parts. In the first, a short reflection of the genre of the so-called pathography is followed by a longer discussion of the relationship between gender, mental disorder and writing around the turn of the century. The second part deals with <em>Hinsides</em>, focusing on the way in which the experience of being ill is produced by the novel, and on the pressure put on language in this process.</p> ER -
