| Summary: | Visual Devices in Contemporary Prose Fiction: Gaps, Gestures, Images critically engages with the visual appearance of graphically innovative prose fiction by authors such as Mark Z. Danielewski, B.S. Johnson, Jonathan Safran Foer and Steve Tomasula. This book acknowledges that the reader of any novel looks at and sees the page before they begin to read any of the text placed upon it. Thus, any disruptions to how a traditional page 'should look' can have a significant impact on the reading process and the generation of meaning from the textual narrative. |
