{"product_id":"narcissism-in-high-fidelity-kristina-nelson-9780595318049","title":"Narcissism in High Fidelity","description":"The following study of narcissism in the leading character in a recent film, \u003ci\u003eHigh Fidelity\u003c\/i\u003e, nonetheless attempts without apology such a psychological analysis of a popular work of fiction. It is the argument of this study that, although High Fidelity is not necessarily high art or even a profoundly serious film, it does present, like much of the best popular art, an insightful and honest examination of a real modern dilemma: the difficulty of intimate relationships in a world where every emotion and every remark seems to have a pop culture reference or origin. This film presents, we will show, a complex and detailed portrait of a particular modern personality type, the narcissistic youth who turns into an overage Peter Pan incapable of commitment; more significantly, however, the film (and the book from which it was adapted) suggests a way out of this dilemma for the protagonist, who ultimately succeeds in overcoming his self-absorption.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kristina Nelson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0595318045\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780595318049\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/10\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.36d","brand":"Kristina Nelson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48443555905791,"sku":"9780595318049","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b11c7bcf-b285-4c40-a2d4-d429ec96fa47.jpg?v=1777206267","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/narcissism-in-high-fidelity-kristina-nelson-9780595318049","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
