A Trilogy Transcendent (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Although all three of the extensively revised novels in this 'trilogy' are independent works that have also been published individually, they share a common thematic concern with transcendentalism, not least in respect of modern art, and were written by the author in quick succession, thereby retaining a stylistic as well as thematic consistency which has always lent itself to the idea, for him, of a loose trilogy that, partly because of their mutual independence and partly because of their subject-matter, could be regarded as 'transcendent'. Hence the title, 'A Trilogy Transcendent' which, deferring to the structural informality of the texts, has the merit of presenting these novels in a cyclically chronological light - something arguably necessary to John O'Loughlin's work as a whole, but especially necessary to a fuller understanding of his approach to transcendentalism as it stood in 1980, the year these novels were originally written. - A Centretruths editorial
