Abstract
This thesis explores the process of becoming in the writing of Virginia Woolf, Nathalie Sarraute, and Cynthia Ozick with primary emphasis on the work of Gilles Deleuze and Mikhail Bakhtin. Essential to this process is the recognition that no ideal language provides the exact tools for the representation of an idea; rather, these authors experiment with form and subject, revealing a process of becoming-other in writing that take place through the encounter of multiple selves and languages.
