Opis

Drawing on the writings of critics and philosophers and on the comments of poets and novelists who have pointed to the role of the ear in writing and reading, Angela Leighton offers a reconsideration of literature as an exercise in hearing things, and renews a call for criticism that is creatively attentive to sound's work in every literary text.
