The Stuttering Son: A Literary Study of Boys and Their Fathers delves into the intricate connections between stuttering, a condition predominantly affecting boys, and the complex relationships experienced by several male authors with their fathers. Notably, many of these writers, including figures like Cotton Mather and John Updike, themselves struggled with stuttering. For Melville and Kafka, the focus shifts to exploring how similar family tensions influenced their interest in the related condition of anorexia. Additionally, a final section examines the patricidal impulse that underlies much of this analysis, as evident in the works of Dostoyevsky, Shakespeare's Hamlet, and Nietzsche. By centering on the realm of a boy's emotional development, this book aims to re-establish the significance of a comprehensive psychological approach in understanding stuttering.
