This review is from: Hints And Guesses: William Gaddis'S Fiction Of Longing (Paperback)
This book covers the works of Gaddis, exclu8ding Agape Agape, with incredible depth and sweep. A book certain to increase one's appreciation of one of the greatest of authors. those interested in the aesthetic elements in all of Gaddis work will truly benefit. Knight discusses the role of the artist, Flemish painting, and Abstract Expressionism of America in Greenwich Village in the 50s with tremendous facility. He also reads J R in a very Platonic way, namely, in light of the role of the examined life and the question as to how one should, but couches it in consideration of the postwar capitalist nation of America. Excellent, Excellent.
