Rescued Readings: A Reconstruction of Gertrude Stein's Difficult Texts, and: Curved Thought and Textual Wandering: Gertrude Stein's Postmodernism (review)

A child whose mothering was split in such a way that her interior mothering was defective, Wharton was unable to become a sexually mature woman even as she became an adult. Through her writing, she explored sexually mature possibilities that were often different sexual parts of herself. In the Morton affair, Wharton was able to find interior sexual cohesion and maturity, even with a partner for whom it meant much less. After that, she was able to divorce Teddy Wharton and to continue to have rich friendships with a number of prominent men, a kind of "composite husband." One of these was Walter Berry, whom Erlich thinks was a very intimate friend but only that, and Henry James, who had introduced her to Fullerton and later had had an affair with Fullerton himself. Consolidated psychologically late in life, Wharton in her own last work, The Gods Arrive, provides the epigraph for Erlich's final chapter, as well as a kind of summarizing word, "You have to go plumb down to the Mothers to fish up the real thing."
