This book examines organizations of consumerist economics, which
developed at the turn of the twentieth century in the West and at
the turn of the twenty-first century in China, in relation to
modernist poetics. Consumerist economics include the artificial
"person" of the corporation, the vertical integration of
production, and consumption based upon desire as well as necessity.
This book assumes that poetics can be understood as a theory in
practice of how a world works. Tracing the relation of economics to
poetics, the book analyzes the impersonality of indirect discourse
in Qian Zhongshu and James Joyce; the impressionist discourses of
Mang Ke and Ezra Pound; and discursive difficulty in Mo Yan and
William Faulkner. Bringing together two notably distinct cultures
and traditions, this book allows us to comprehend modernism as a
theory in practice of lived experience in cultures organized around
consumption.
