Over the years, my erratic thinking processes and convoluted writing habits benefited from the careful guidance of Patrick McCarthy and Joseph Alkana from the University of Miami, as well as Wendy Faris from the University of Texas at Arlington. I am grateful not only for their insightful commentaries and conscientious editing, but also for their unrelenting trust and ongoing friendship. When two years ago the going got tough in academia, my good friends Alan Gravano and Peter Cramer made it their mission to keep me from losing heart.
Haunted by the demons of my own past, I could not have written about trauma without the love and moral support of my parents, Jenö and Anna Mária, to whom I dedicate this work.
