　　In two previous books, Janet Malcolm explored the hidden sides

of, respectively, institutional psycho***ysis and Freudian

biography. In this book, she examines the psychopathology of

journalism. Using a strange and unprecedented lawsuit as her

larger-than-life example -- the lawsuit of Jeffrey MacDonald, a

convicted murderer, against Joe McGinniss, the author of Fatal

Vision, a book about the crime -- she delves into the always

uneasy, sometimes tragic relati***hip that exists between

journalist and subject. In Malcolm's view, neither journalist nor

subject can avoid the moral impasse that is built into the

journalistic situation. When the text first appeared, as a two-part

article in The New Yorker, its thesis seemed so radical and its

irony so pitiless that journalists across the country reacted as if

stung.

书籍介绍

In two previous books, Janet Malcolm explored the hidden sides of, respectively, institutional psycho***ysis and Freudian biography. In this book, she examines the psychopathology of journalism. Using a strange and unprecedented lawsuit as her larger-than-life example -- the lawsuit of Jeffrey MacDonald, a convicted murderer, against Joe McGinniss, the author of Fatal Vision, a book about the crime -- she delves into the always uneasy, sometimes tragic relati***hip that exists between journalist and subject. In Malcolm's view, neither journalist nor subject can avoid the moral impasse that is built into the journalistic situation. When the text first appeared, as a two-part article in The New Yorker, its thesis seemed so radical and its irony so pitiless that journalists across the country reacted as if stung.

Her book is a work of journalism as well as an essay on journalism: it at once exemplifies and dissects its subject. In her interviews with the leading and subsidiary characters in the MacDonald-McGinniss case -- the principals, their lawyers, the members of the jury, and the various pers*** who testified as expert witnesses at the trial -- Malcolm is always aware of herself as a player in a game that, as she points out, she cannot lose. The journalist-subject encounter has always troubled journalists, but never before has it been looked at so unflinchingly and so ruefully. Hovering over the narrative -- and always on the edge of the reader's c***ciousness -- is the MacDonald murder case itself, which imparts to the book an atmosphere of anxiety and uncanniness. The Journalist and the Murderer derives from and reflects many of the dominant intellectual concerns of our time, and it will have a particular appeal for those who cherish the odd, the off-center, and the unsolved.
