The Wallace Effect
Angebote / Angebote:
The Wallace Effect explores David Foster Wallace's contested space at the forefront of 21st-century American fiction. Leading Wallace scholar Marshall Boswell illuminates "The Wallace Effect"--the aura of literary competition that Wallace routinely summoned in his fiction and non-fiction and that continues to inform the reception of his work. He examines novels by Wallace's literary patriarchs and contemporaries that introduce innovations on traditional metafiction that Wallace would later claim as his own. He also explores four novels published after Wallace's death that attempt to demythologize Wallace's persona and his literary preeminence. By re-situating Wallace's work in a broader and more contentious literary arena, The Wallace Effect traces both the reach and the limits of Wallace's legacy.
