Written during the Italian winter of 1930, The Blue Spill is an
unfinished detective novel written by Ezra Pound - the leading
figure of modernist poetry in the 20th century - and his long-time
companion Olga Rudge. Published for the first time in this
authoritative critical edition, the novel reflects both Rudge's and
Pound's voracious reading of popular fiction as it echoes and
parodies such writers as Agatha Christie, Dorothy L. Sayers and
P.G. Wodehouse. Based on the original manuscripts of the novel,
this critical edition includes annotation and textual commentary
throughout. The book also includes critical essays exploring the
contexts of the work, from the dynamics of artistic collaboration
to the growing popularity of detective fiction at the beginning of
the 20th century. Taken together, this unique publication sheds new
light on the relationship between the literary avant-garde and
popular culture in the modernist period.
