Alan Hollinghurst And The Vitality Of Influence

"Proposes a striking approach for reading the influences that interlace twentieth-century gay British writers. By focusing on the role of the textual image in literary influence, this book moves towards a new understanding of the interpenetration of literary and visual culture throughout the twentieth century. In doing so, this engaging new study illuminates the relationships between texts that are lost when influence is viewed as an anxious wish to triumph over the very history of images that an author has most loved and most powerfully re-awakened."--Provided by publisher.
