Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'This is an engaging and unusual memoir that is also both cultural analysis and a history of ideas. Davis examines his personal experience of graduate literary studies, tenure and retirement, then offers astute analysis of social changes affecting the professional study of literature in the second half of the twentieth century. He concludes with an account of his own shift as a writer to creative nonfiction and cultural commentary.'--Back cover. Seller Inventory # 9780991107438
