Ivan Kreilkamp

A Visit from the Goon Squad Reread

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Jennifer Egan described her Pulitzer Prizeà â â winning novel A Visit from the Goon Squad as a combination of Proust and The Sopranos. In rereading the book, Ivan Kreilkamp takes Egan up on her comparison, showing how it blends a concern with the status of the novel today with an elegiac meditation on how we experience the passage of time.
