For this optional short response it occurs to me to suggest focusing a bit on the narrative and interpretive layers in play in this piece on the imperatives of sleep and awakening.
There are moments in the text where we find:
Caruth reading Freud
Caruth reading Lacan reading Freud
Caruth reading Lacan
Lacan reading Freud
Freud reading his patient's dream
and maybe a few other variations
Consider selecting two different instances of these interpretive processes and briefly compare and contrast.
What is the significance of what you find in common or in difference?
