abstract

Tommy Wieringa (1967) is one of the most prominent contemporary Dutch novelists. His three most famous novels – Joe Speedboat, Caesarion and Dit zijn de namen depict different aspects of liminal identity. Most of the characters cannot successfully accomplish, however, a certain liminal stage. This is due to various reasons which could be analyzed using a psychoanalytic and poststructural approach, for example, the theories of Jacques Lacan, Donald Winnicott, René Girard and Jacques Derrida. The experiences of the characters reflect many of these tendencies and interestingly enough demonstrate a sense of standstill even in the midst of mobility.
