God knows Thomas Harris is not above some pretentious symbolism but I feel REASONABLY sure he was not thinking “in this next scene, I will have my character symbolically impregnate his baby sister with a vegetable to support his fictional diagnosis.” I mean. Has this person read Hannibal Rising? It is not a SUBTLE book. If T.Harris wanted the eggplant to symbolize a dick he would have had no problem flat out saying that it looked like a big purple dick. Ugh, sorry, I know you know all this, I’m just out of bed and possibly should have had caffeine before tackling my Tumblr backlog. Let Mischa Play With Vegetables That Are Not Symbolic Dicks, 2K17. Also, ANYONE who still argues with goddamn PSYCHOANALYSIS in this day and age is a pretentious ass who probably thinks they’re special and distinguished for referencing Freud, when in reality they’re just loudly admitting that they have zero idea what is or isn’t regarded as relevant in modern psychology. (Hint: It’s not Freud) Even Bryan Fuller’s Hannibal, master of drawn out metaphors and literary references has the decency to call psychoanalysis a ‘dead religion’. If T.Harris wanted the eggplant to symbolize a dick he would have had no problem flat out saying that it looked like a big purple dick Absolutely agree. -- source link
