The Novel Art: Elevations of American Fiction After Henry James Paperback - 2001
by Mark McGurl
From the rear cover
"The Novel Art may be a 'first book' in a technical sense, but it is much more than that. In ambition, range, subtlety and sophistication, it is fully mature and accomplished, easily the match of anything currently being produced in the various fields into which it enters. Ranging through and across period, genre, and critical lines, Mark McGurl makes a compelling set of arguments with wit and panache. His book exemplifies what it anatomizes--it gives us the intellectual thrill of watching a playful intelligence take up something we thought we knew, and show us things we had never seen there before. It is very important indeed."--Jonathan Freedman, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor
