We were doing Conrad's "Heart of Darkness" as a central text this semester. I absolutely love that book, but the over-analysis thing is doubly true for texts as amorphous as that one, to the extent that the lecture essentially consisted of an itemised list of the various and completely different ways its been interpreted. Political readings, existential readings, epistemological readings... you name it, someone's thought of it. Truth is, with "death of the author" in effect, a text can be none of these things and all of them at once. You find whatever it is you're looking for, really.
