The Mechanic Muse by Hugh Kenner PDF Summary

Book Description: Hugh Kenner, one of America's most distinguished critics, brings his customary wit and erudition to bear on a particularly provocative theme: the response of literary Modernism to a changing environment wrought by technology. In fascinating examinations of Eliot, Pound, Joyce, and Beckett, Kenner looks at how inventions like the linotype, the typewriter, the subway, and the computer altered the way the world was viewed and depicted. Kenner sheds new light on the works of these authors, while providing, almost incidentally, a wealth of anecdotes and asides that will delight the general reader and literary specialist alike.
