Produktbeschreibung
The Literary Journalist and Degrees of Detachment: An Ethical Investigation, examines the complexities of the relationship between the writer and the subject. It does so in the context of the literary journalism genre, researching the role and influence of the narrator in the telling of a subject s story.
