Description
Explore the complex relationship between John McGahern's fiction and modernist aesthetics in this scholarly work from Bloomsbury Academic. While McGahern's memorialising and faintly archaic style might seem at odds with modernism, this study reveals a covert engagement with the movement through his focus on the presence of words and the impersonality of his art. In John McGahern and Modernism, Richard Robinson provides intertextual interpretations of six novels and various grouped short stories. By reading McGahern alongside influential writers such as Joyce and Proust, this book offers a deep look into how his work functions within the literary tradition. It is a significant addition to the Continuum Literary Studies series for readers interested in contemporary Irish literature and modernist theory.
