Constellation of Genius: 1922: Modernism Year One
“Constellation of Genius. . . is that most counterintuitive of things, an insanely readable book about modernism. Indeed, I think it no disservice to Jackson to say that this is the primer [modernism] has been looking for: a way into its symbolic labyrinth.” —Will Self,The Guardian“A lively guide to modernism’s heyday . . . Deft, elegant and illuminating.” —Literary Review“[A] marvelous diary of a single year . . . You will be struck by some startling moment of import in a life of genius or an epoch-making event.” —Sunday Herald
