Reviews

An invigorating re-assessment of modernism's susceptibility to its own formal and thematic critiques, rivalries, and negations, one that charts with interpretive flair new ways to think about the political and aesthetic implications of autonomy. This is a must-read book not only for scholars of modernism in general but also for scholars working on the experimental writers Stinson foregrounds (Wyndham Lewis, William Gaddis, and Gilbert Sorrentino). It is an exceptionally judicious reconsideration of the limits and possibilities of an essential emphasis in cultural history. Nathan Waddell, Assistant Professor in Literary Modernism, University of Nottingham, UK
