Throught these 72 critical pieces, including 25,previously uncollected essays and reviewsSorrentino argues against the idea that fiction,and poetry are only valuable for what they 'tell,us'. His close readings of such influential,writers as William Carlos Williams, Edward,Dahlberg, Hubert Selby, John Hawkes, William,Gaddis and Flann O'Biren demonstrate his concern,for the craft of writing and the development of an,American aesthetic.
