Testo aggiuntivo

"With this work, Hetherington and Atherton enrich understanding of and debates about the 'new' genre of prose poetry. Their impressive explication of the genre’s history from the mid-19th century to the present sets a frame for their equally impressive exploration of many facets of this protean art."
