Reviews
'Unsurprisingly, Burn spends most time and space on The Corrections , the novel to which Franzen most owes his current fame.His argument here is that previous critics have not appreciated the book's careful narrative construction and the challenges it offers to conventional ways of understanding literary character in particular.Given that Franzen's novel was heralded by many as a return to character in contemporary writing, Burn's intervention here is significant, and his section on "Fictions of the Self" is probably the most valuable piece of Corrections criticism yet...Matching close reading with literary-historical breadth, Burn has exploited a large range of scholarly methods and techniques, and in doing so has created an impressively twenty-first century critical study of a twenty-first-century author.'- Journal of American Studies , 2009, "Burn's book is a model first study of a contemporary novelist-rigorous, learned, thorough, inventive, and lucidly written. Jonathan Franzen at the End of Postmodernism is also the best commentary I know on the successors of Gaddis, Pynchon, and DeLillo-Powers, Wallace, Vollmann, and, of course, Franzen." - Tom LeClair, Nathaniel Ropes Professor of English, University of Cincinnati, USA, 'Burn's study produces a fascinating case study of how difficult it has become to brand one's self as a "literary" author in an age in which literature has become another kind of multinational capitalist product.' American Literary History, 5th July 2010;, 'Burn's analysis is a fine, illuminative and perhaps even provocative study not only of Franzen's fiction but that of his post-postmodern contemporaries, as well as the literature of the preceding generation of writers.'

Synopsis
Franzen is fast becoming the subject of increased academic attention but this monograph is the first comprehensive study of his work. >, Jonathan Franzen is one of the most influential, critically-significant and popular contemporary American novelists. This book is the first full-length study of his work and attempts to articulate where American fiction is headed after postmodernism. Stephen Burn provides a comprehensive analysis of each of Franzen's novels - from his early work to the major success of The Corrections - identifying key sources, delineating important narrative strategies, and revealing how Franzen's themes are reinforced by each novel's structure. Supplementing this analysis with comparisons to key contemporaries, David Foster Wallace and Richard Powers, Burn suggests how Franzen's work is indicative of the direction of experimental American fiction in the wake of the so-called end of postmodernism., Jonathan Franzen is one of the most influential, critically-significant and popular contemporary American novelists.

- n***i (5)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufMy statue was exactly as described, it was un-opened and in perfect condition! Totally wirth the price. Getting it shipped took a little long but the seller was very responsive when I messaged and sent me the tracking as soon as it was available. Plus they did a good job packaging it well enough that despite being banged up on the outside my item was completely undamaged.
- r***b (114)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufGraphic novel album was sealed, NM, great value. Seller was great and responsive to communication. Item initially did not arrive despite tracking and me calling USPS, and seller was willing to provide refund to make it right. Ultimately the package showed up days later, which was baffling; seller provided A+ customer service through all of this. Thank You!

Auction said 12-15 days. Better clarity would have prevented lot of frustrationStreet Fighter II - Guile (Player 2) Figure - 6 Inch (Nr. 365698737394)
