Building can be seen as a master metaphor for modernity, which some great irresistible force, be it Fascism or Communism or capitalism, is always busy rebuilding, and Houses is a book about a man, Arsénie Negovan, who has devoted his life and his dreams to building. Bon vivant, Francophile, visionary, Negovan spent the first half of his life building houses he loved and even named—Juliana, Christina, Agatha—while making his hometown of Belgrade into a modern city to be proud of. The second half of his life, after World War II and the Nazi occupation, he has spent in one of those houses, looked after by his wife and a nurse, in hiding. Houses is set on the final day of his life, when Negovan at last ventures forth to see the world as it is. Negovan is one of the great characters in modern fiction, a man of substance and a deluded fantasist, a beguiling visionary and a monster of selfishness, a charmer no matter what. And perhaps he is right to fear that home is only an illusion in our world, or that only in illusion is there home.

Northrop Frye on Twentieth-century Literature By:Northrop Frye,Glen Robert Gill Published on 2010 by University of Toronto Press ( DOWNLOAD NOW ) |This volume brings together Northrop Frye's criticism on twentieth-century literature, a body of work produced over almost sixty years.

Obtain The Hatred of Literature

The Hatred of Literature By:William Marx Published on 2018-01-08 by Harvard University Press ( DOWNLOAD NOW ) For 2,500 years literature has been condemned in the name of authority, truth, morality and society. But in making explicit what a society expects from literature, anti-literary discourse paradoxically asserts the validity of what it wishes to deny. The threat to literature’s continued existence, William Marx writes, is not hatred but indifference. This Book was ranked at 19 by Google Books for keyword Literature.
