영문 초록

  Don DeLillo"s Falling Man published in 2007 is a story which begins on September 11, 2001, as the buildings of World Trade Center are falling. In the novel, Keith Neudecker, a New York City lawyer nearing 40 who survives the disaster, returns to his estranged wife, Lianne with whom he has a son, Justin. But the episodes which DeLillo deals with are irrelevant to whether they will reconstitute their marriage. DeLillo examines character"s interior and psychic lives in response to something terrible happening in the world. Everyone is looking for "spiritual therapeutics," but nothing works in the novel. With Lacanian concept of trauma, I try to observe why 9-11 should be considered as a traumatic and repetitive event through revealing their relationships, their thoughts, and their utter inadequacy in the face of catastrophe and evil of the novel.
