Bringing depth and shadow to our collective portrait of what a serial killer must be, Mark Seltzer draws upon popular sources, scholarly analyses, and the language of psychoanalysis to explore the genesis of this uniquely modern phenomenon. Revealed is a fascination with machines and technological reproduction, with the singular and the plural, with definitions of self, other, and intimacy.
What emerges is a disturbing picture of how contemporary culture is haunted by technology and the instability of identity.
