This book attempts to address the paradoxes inherent in international modernism (a literary movement which at once strove to cross borders of nation, language, and tradition yet which at the same time often endorsed nationalist and ‘racial’ models of identity.
Beginning with the late work of Henry James, this book goes on to examine at length Ezra Pound and Gertrude Stein, to conclude with the uncanny regionalism of mid-century San Francisco Renaissance poet Jack Spicer, and the deterritorialised aesthetic of Spicer's peer, John Ashbery.
