Crimes of Writing by Susan Stewart
Eight essays that examine particular issues in the relations between subjectivity, authenticity, writing, speech and the law.
"In the essays collected in Crimes of Writing, Stewart continues to build on her reputation as one of the most productive and challenging deconstructors of the disciplinary boundaries that supposedly separate literary history and critical theory from contemporary cultural analysis"— Michael Moon, Duke University
"Stewart’s work provides an oasis in contemporary criticism, a place where theory and poetry, systematic reflection and the essayistic plunge into particular cases, come together in a refreshing synthesis. Crimes of Writing is a worthy successor to Nonsense and On Longing."—W. J. T. Mitchell, University of Chicago
