Summary/Abstract: In this text authoress considers if deconstruction can be experienced or is it an experience itself, and that this possibility would have to deconstruct some essential notion we have of what experience itself is. Through the reading of Freud’s essay "The Uncanny" the authoress considers his argument concerning the uncanny experience of fiction, which Freud persists in wanting to distinguish from real experience. She shows that this reading of fiction is the very place where his "deconstruction" of experience, which he calls the uncanny, confirms and accepts a limit that later deconstructive thought will not leave intact. It will be the deconstruction on the limits of real experience.
