Institution:

Harvard University

Subject:

Description:

Two notoriously difficult, yet hugely influential writers who have pushed the limits of the novel form. This course will be organized around theoretical contexts that both writers address, often in divergent but resonant ways. Such contexts include temporality and perception; speech and silence; passivity and aggression. We will read four novels by each writer and some secondary material.
