A Discourse on Method is a paranoid theory and a counterfactual history of American method acting, conducted in two parts. The first is Shonni Enelow's account of a journey into the churning guts of the Method archives; the second is David Levine's monologue Edition of Eight, delivered by an artificial human. Illustrated throughout with spiritual, conspiratorial, and documentary images.

Shonni Enelow is the author of Method Acting and Its Discontents: On American Psycho-Drama, which won the George Jean Nathan Award for Dramatic Criticism. She is an associate professor of English at Fordham University.
