FORM AND FABLE IN AMERICAN FICTION | DANIEL HOFFMAN IN JOHANNESBURG

Author: Daniel Hoffman  Publisher: University of Virginia Press () ISBN-10: ISBN-13: Condition: Very Good - Some small indentations on the front cover Binding: Softcover Pages: 368 Dimensions: 21.5 x 14 x 3 cm +++ by Daniel Hoffman +++ Combining the disciplines of folklore and literary criticism in his perceptive readings of works by Irving, Hawthorne, Melville, and Mark Twain, Daniel Hoffman demonstrates how these authors transformed materials from both high and popular culture, from their European past and their American present, in works that helped to form national consciousness.   A passion for books and a passion for collecting fine editions was the recipe that created the successful group of bookshops in Johannesburg called Bookdealers. The group started thirty years ago with one store in the quirky suburb of Yeoville and has grown through the years to a total of five shops, plus our online sales. Bookdealers is well-known for its collectable and used books. We also have a large variety of remaindered books sourced from around the world.  If you collect from one of our five branches there is no delivery charge. We also offer postal delivery (when available) and courier delivery, subject to a quote.
