Modernist Novels and the Time of Reading considers how bookish format plays a role in some of the twentieth century's most famous literary experiments. Tracking the passing of time in which reading unfolds, these novels position the book's so-called death in terms that refer as much to a simple description of its future other media forms as to the sense of introduce these books share with and transmit to their readers. John Paquette shows how these novels stage intersections with the phenomenal world of their readers and develop a conception of literary experience not accounted for by either rigorously historicist or traditionally formalist accounts of the modernist period. Bringing together issues of media and mediation, book history, and modernist aesthetics, Modernist Novels and the Time of Reading offers a new and deeper understanding of the way we read now.
