Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"[What] is so wonderful about reading How Literatures Begin is the sense one comes away with, that it is somehow both inevitable and truly miraculous that any of these literatures should have come into being—and just how many more are out there for us readers to discover and explore in-depth."---Jeffrey Zuckerman, World Literature Today
"Lande and Feeney's ambition for this handsome book is to provide a "global" survey of the origins of literatures. It succeeds in impressionistic, mosaic-like fashion." * Choice Reviews *
