Resum
It is the aim of this paper to analyze the narrative voice of the first eight novels written by D(onald) M(ichael) Thomas (1935-) in the decade of the eighties. Through the methods of improvising stories inside other stories, and the parodic perspective used by the author, most of the novels are produced in series and form part of a same material which is influenced by two powerful leitmotifs: the debt to Freud and psychoanalysis, and the recreation of Russian literature and the soviet dictatorship, the Pushkinian world and a tribute to some poets like Akhmatova, Pasternak, Mandelstam and Tsvetaeva.
