journal is an unconscious fantasy created by libidinal imaginations of a young girl, Lisa. The dream world provokes uncanny feelings, emotions and sensations, and the readers are driven into a strange 'poetic' world of unimaginable dream and even delirium. At first sight, the instinctual and libidinal movements of the psyche - the sensual urges and impulses of Lisa's unconscious desire - appear to have broken out to revoke 'panoramic' scenes of 'chaotic' dynamism filled with complicated images from dreams, illusions and hallucinations. The appearance of Lisa's libidinal world brings about sudden disintegration of the conscious mind, causing the total collapse of the every day's self and normal reality. The 'Gastein Journal' is filled with disorganised dream-images of libidinal force, creating very "uncanny" effects that are felt strange to the conscious mind but familiar to the unconscious mind.
