1.The Magic MountainThe Magic Mountain
from Vintage
Price: $12.89

Customer Review:
You can see a summary of the plot of the book in mostly every other review about this book. What I did not found was the fantastic way of the author to tell several stories in several levels at the same time. For the straight thinker, the story might be closer to a Seinfeld episode than a literary... more info

2.The Meaning of LifeThe Meaning of Life
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $17.15

Customer Review:
Do not wate your time; Eagleton is the most simplistic thinker, if you can call him a "thinker." The book has nothing serious; all one-line arguments meant to please a public audience. A code word for wanting to make money, which serious academics cannot and should not do; If you want to think hard... more info

3.William James: In the Maelstrom of American ModernismWilliam James: In the Maelstrom of American Modernism
from Mariner Books
Price: $12.21

Customer Review:
As a graduate student of counseling psychology, I read on average 300 pages a week for school. But after my reading for school is done, only one book can keep my attention, and that's Richardson's biography on James.
If you want to see American psychology at its roots, there's no one else to... more info

4.The Originality of the Avant-Garde and Other Modernist MythsThe Originality of the Avant-Garde and Other Modernist Myths
from The MIT Press
Price: $21.12

Customer Review:
Don't let the number of syllables fool you - Krauss' words are far too big for her britches. Sarcastic and often defensive in tone, this polemic falls short of the academic masterpiece it is often purported to be. Her characterization of Mondrian's artistic program as an obsession with the grid... more info

Customer Review:
Originally on [........]
If there's something that Christian publishers can't get enough of these days its Christianity and arts or culture or something like it. Most of these books reference each other and haven't really said anything original in years. Far too many people have made a name for... more info

6.The Cambridge Introduction to Modernism (Cambridge Introductions to Literature)The Cambridge Introduction to Modernism (Cambridge Introductions to Literature)
from Cambridge University Press
Price: $19.49

Customer Review:
Very complete, well-written, interesting to read, this introduction to Modernism is just what you're looking for, if you're interested in Modernism. It covers a lot of ground, and gives enough context, historical and otherwise, so that Modernism can be seen in perspective. Highly recommended.

from Cornell University Press
Price: $21.95

Customer Review:
Philip Weinstein's Unknowing: The Work of Modernist Fiction is brilliant criticism and a bravura performance. One of our most thoughtful and eloquent critics of the novel, Weinstein's new book is his most ambitious and impressive work thus far. He begins with a tour de force "genealogy of realism,"... more info

10.Modernism: An Anthology (Blackwell Anthologies)Modernism: An Anthology (Blackwell Anthologies)
from Wiley-Blackwell
Price: $44.95

Customer Review:
It is truly a shame that most people who pick up this anthology will probably read it as an addendum for a class they are taking. In that respect, it is both a veritable well of knowledge and a framework for ongoing debate on the merits (or shortcomings?) of modernism. But for the casual reader, the... more info
