Freud as a Fictional Character

I am quoting La Force about to quote Woods paraphrasing Nabokov:

As James Wood writes in his book How Fiction Works:

Nabokov used to say that he pushed his characters around like serfs or chess pieces—he had no time for metaphorical ignorance and impotence whereby authors like to say, “I don’t know what happened, by my character just got away from same and did his own thing.”

I have to suspect that even Nabokov would have had a hard time pushing Freud around.
