Cards of identity
N. Dennis
Cards of Identity is a scathing satire of psychology, identity theory, and class prejudice. The plot centers on an annual meeting of the Identity Club, a group of psychologists who come together to present case histories promoting their chosen theory of identity. These case studies (three of which are presented in the novel) are not scientific treatises, but fictional representations of characters in line with the author's biases. One of three cases is about multiple sex identity that brings the field of psychiatry and homosexuality under a withering searchlight.
