Bob Dylan's tightrope walks and Alfred Hitchcock's vertigo. Flaubert's kicks against idiocy and Cocteau's embrace of death. The enduring appeal of Surrealism and the failures of intellectual culture. In these thirteen essays, Mark Polizzotti brings fresh readings to topics both mainstream and esoteric. Drawing on three decades of critical writings, Jump Cuts ranges across a broad swath of subjects--film, music, literature, translation, the pitfalls of biography, the current dilemma of the humanities--to map the creative act as it strains to fulfill our eternal, unrequited yearning for transcendence." -- Mark Polizzotti.
