Reforming the Boy [CD] Back Cover ABSTRACT 'Fictocriticism' refers to writing that performs yet also problematizes the key manoeuvres of both fiction and criticism. Fictoc¡iticism is a term that has been taken trp in Australian academic contexts to describe writing that is concemed with an interplay of writing 'positions' and with the specific or local contexts that enable the production of these'positions,. Fictocritical Sentences primarily enacts a fictocritical mapping of local cultural events. The 'events' are essentially concemed with crime and trauma in Adelaide. They include the disappearance of the three Beaumont children in 1966, the 'Family'murders of the 1980s, the 'Truro'murders of the L9z0s and the ,reforming, of 'c¡iminal' and 'neglected' boys cn the Fitzjames, a hulk moored off the metropolitan coast of Adelaide, during the 1880s. The fictocritical treatment of these events simulates their unresolved or traumatised condition. Differences between'invention'and 'explication' matter most at times of personal and public trauma.
