Even though their search for meaning remains unresolved, their predicaments voice the concerns of a malaise that couldn't be biologically treated or medically explained.

While Yates, Updike and Percy provide platforms to express this ennui and malaise, they are just as keen to deconstruct and critique this vacuous quest for normativity—with Yates 28 Anna G. A madhouse? Have you ever seen the inside of one of those places? She just goes a little mad sometimes.

If the cinematic treatment of mental health aimed to thrill audiences by uncovering a dark, psychologically unbalanced and threatening character, literary representations throughout the decade took a very different approach.

Revolutionary Road

On one level, Ginsberg claims a reciprocal relationship between artistic creativity and madness, a theme carried through his poetry. This theme is recurring in Beat literature of the time, and while drug-fuelled images underpin some of the visions, there is a strong connection between the two. There is also a certain reverence for the psychopathic figure, portrayed as a kind of soothsayer and symbol of cultural rebellion. At the same time, it can be seen to shift the ideological association from the crazed, sexually driven sociopath to viewing madness as a creative response to the hegemonic culture of the s, and, further, embracing the new forms of perception this elicits.

The asylum, strictly regimented under the domineering presence of Nurse Ratched, has its established order overthrown by Randle P. Aside from McMurphy, there is certainly a question as to whether any of the other inmates are certifiably insane, and, just as importantly, if their institutionalisation has any therapeutic benefits.

Because maybe it does take a certain amount of guts to see the emptiness, but it takes a whole hell of a lot more to see the hopelessness.

Course, come to think of it, that figures. Givings with that of the reality, the female identity that exists beneath the surface. And intelligent. As advanced in this thesis, Revolutionary Road abounds with performance, as characters assume different roles, rehearsing and rehashing lines at will.

During their last encounter, when Frank informs him that the trip to Paris is off, Givings becomes increasingly distressed and agitated by their decision. Wife talk you out of it, or what? I can tell she looks too tough. Tough and female and adequate as hell. You get cold feet, or what? You decide you like it here after all?

Look at his face! Am I getting warm? You know something? This, however, merely amplifies its significance, with his wry disclosure particularly unconvincing. Here, Frank seems to take solace and draw strength from the fact April is, in his opinion at least, more psychologically unbalanced than him. Even though April gives a fairly strong argument as to why his assessment is somewhat unfounded—having already given birth to two children—Frank suggests her wish for an abortion is based on a denial of womanhood. Anyway, she kept trying to get rid of her pregnancies, and what this particular guy figured out was that she was really trying to sort of open herself up so that the —you know—so that the penis could come out and hang down where it belonged.

Sombre as the disclosure is, it is also laced with irony and dark humour too, perhaps, as Frank fulfils the prophecy he had set out for April. Givings, too, as a secondary character—and late addition, nonetheless—has a specific function in relation to both narrative and plot; he ruptures the facade of normalcy and superficiality that is upheld from the outset.

By weaving both of these strands within the narrative, Yates opens up a preliminary dialogue about the cultural construction of mental illness and the pervasive power of psychoanalysis.
