This volume of conversation not only provides a succinct
philosophical biography that highlights the wide range of
Attridge's interests. It likewise foregrounds his energetic
engagements with literary theory, poetics, and stylistics, as well
as his reassessments of contemporary philosophy and literary ideas,
specifically those pertaining to the work Jacques Derrida, James
Joyce, and J. M. Coetzee. Readers will find in this book a
wonderful balancing act as Attridge negotiates the dynamics between
the orthodoxies of critical practice and the strategic
interventions of deconstructive reading. This book, with an
appendix of a chronological listing of Attridge's publications, is
an accessible and provocative introduction to the ideas of one of
the most brilliant critical voices and generous presences in
literary studies in the Anglophone world.
