Here & Elsewhere: The Collected Fiction Of Kenneth Burke. This item is unavailable.Here & Elsewhere: The Collected Fiction Of Kenneth Burke

The gorgeous, brilliant essay-stories of Kenneth Burke were unlike any other fiction of the 1920s. Here & Elsewhere gathers, for the first time, all of Burke’s fiction: 23 short stories and Towards a Better Life, which Denis Donoghue calls “one of my favorite novels, full of sentences so luminous that I could be easily persuaded that style is everything.”

Kenneth Burke published in and edited prominent literary magazines and taught at colleges across the country. His work in literary criticism received numerous accolades, including the 1981 National Medal for Literature at the American Book Awards.

Denis Donoghue is the Henry James Chair of English and American Letters at New York University. He was born in Ireland and educated at University College Dublin and the University of Cambridge.
