Literary Subversion by Jerome Klinkowitz

Klinkowitz' comprehensive Introduc­tion provides the clearest, liveliest explo­ration to date of the technical and criti­cal developments in the art of the novel over the past two decades.

Using a variety of approaches from po­lemic and lyric to personal witness, Klinkowitz discusses John Updike, Grace Paley, Robley Wilson, Ishmael Reed, John Gardner, Thomas McGuane, John Irving, Richard Yates, John Barth, Jerzy Kosinski, Dan Wakefield, and Tom Glynn.

“Klinkowitz is perhaps the only critic of the new fiction who has developed a style. . adapted to the fiction he writes about, yet without ever sacrificing the scholarly qualities of his work.”— Raymond Federman, SUNY-Buffalo

Jerome Klinkowitz is Professor of En­glish at the University of Northern Iowa.
