Beschreibung
This book examines the fiction of modern authors, who have deviated from the traditional modes of narrative structure to reflect thematic elements. In so doing, these writers have created new novelistic forms that surprise and entrance readers in new ways. The works of Vladimir Nabokov, Ismael Reed, Manuel Puig, William Gaddis, Djuna Barnes, John Fowles, and Lawrence Durrell are examined in terms of the aesthetic theories provided by the writers themselves.

«Michael Boccia's tour through the works of some of the more difficult modern novelists is more than welcome. He's able to provide help where the reader is likely to need it. The blend of interpretation and supporting material is fresh and interesting.» (Lee T. Lemon, University of Nebraska - Lincoln)
