Art of Hunger

Aesthetic Autonomy and the Afterlives of Modernism

Beschreibung

When we think of writers today, we often think of them as thin and poor-as starving artists. This book traces the history of this idea, and asks why hunger has been such a compelling metaphor for thinking about writing in modern times.
