It traces how the reading of abandoned creative endeavor-whether arriving in the form of a rejection letter, a disagreement with a collaborator, or the simple act of walking away from one's desk-can change the way we think about cultural production, the creative process, and the intellectual construction of everyday life. Over five distinct journeys through a variety of archives, from major research libraries to the unique collections of individual enthusiasts, Matthew Harle draws surprising connections between literary studies, media studies, and visual arts, exploring unfinished projects from Thomas Pynchon, Muriel Spark, B.S. Johnson, Harold Pinter, and others. Rooted in literary criticism, Afterlives of Abandoned Work reads unbuilt buildings, unfilmed screenplays, and unpublished novels and radio sketches as forms of text that can help us consider the enduring fragmentation and anecdotal construction of cultural form, as well as expand literary criticism's approach to the archive. 650 0 $a Unfinished books. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85139660 650 0 $a Unfinished works of art. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85139661 650 0 $a Creation (Literary, artistic, etc.) $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85033827 650 7 $a Creation (Literary, artistic, etc.) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00882393 650 7 $a Unfinished books. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01161274 650 7 $a Unfinished works of art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01161280 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214023349.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C8F09716101A11EA8DA14E4D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
