Abstract
In Esther Gerritsen’s oeuvre, the characters are strongly interwoven with space. This article is about her novel Roxy (2014) and examines how spatial descriptions function in the novel and to what extent they can contribute to its interpretation. The study analyzes binary oppositions, setting, and the use of the threshold motif.
Nederlandstalig abstract
In het oeuvre van Esther Gerritsen zijn de personages sterk verweven met de ruimte. Dit artikel gaat over haar roman Roxy (2014) en onderzoekt hoe ruimtelijke beschrijvingen in de roman functioneren en in hoeverre ze kunnen bijdragen aan de interpretatie ervan. De studie analyseert binaire opposities, setting en het gebruik van het drempelmotief.
