Description
The publication in 2009 of Mark McGurl's The Program Era provoked a sea change in the study of postwar literature. After The Program Era explores the consequences and implications, as well as the lacunae and liabilities, of McGurl's foundational intervention. McGurl focuses only on American fiction and the traditional MFA program, and this collection aims to expand and examine its insights in terms of other genres and sites.
