Description ▲
This book sets out to provide a new understanding of the nexus between the literary world and contemporary communication (iPhone et al.) in all its facets – not Marshall McLuhan’s “The medium is the message,†but a new formula: “The medium is the maker.†In this exploration of the medium – traditional, modern, postmodern – Miller engages with Browning, Freud, and Derrida to provide a platform of personal discovery and literary enlightenment (at times solemn, ironic, comic, and occasionally devastating).
