Portable Prose: The Novel and the Everyday examines the novel as a
privileged site for representing the everyday, as well as a
physical object that occupies public and private space. This
collection interrogates the relationships between these differing
aspects of the novel's existence, negotiating the boundaries
between the material world, subjective experience, and strategies
of representation. This collection offers a wide array of
innovative novelistic explorations-with a focus ranging from
nineteenth-century fiction to contemporary literary theory-and
explores the portability of novels as both physical things and
virtual hermeneutic devices. While mimetic qualities of prose
remain an integral consideration for literary interpretation, this
collection argues for more diverse frameworks-ones that see
aesthetic components of the novel in close connection with reading
practices, shared structures of feeling, and the corporeal. In this
capacity, this volume will argue for readings of texts that
consider the capacity for literary culture to move through the
world, but also to make it or re-make it new.
