The quote you chose definitely describes his discomfort with language as a medium for expression. His crisis definitely has elements of a psychological crisis but I am inclined to view it as more of an ethical crisis. He does have issues with his desire to express his thoughts accurately, yet part of his problem seems to lay in his ‘over-thinking’ the purpose of his words. What is he really trying to say? Why does he have difficulties saying it? Is it his need to break away from the mundane and find new ways to describe the world around him as he sees it? Perhaps, but it definitely plays into his need to unify separate words into one unified, whole, thought.Lasicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12669350570357304019noreply@blogger.com
