The Narrative Power of Things: Consumer Culture in Contemporary Austrian Literature - Studies in Modern German and Austrian Literature
Rebecca Wismeg-Kammerlander
This book unveils how a skilful reading of consumer objects can enrich literary analysis. Focusing on Austrian writers Haas, Glavinic, Geiger and Edelbauer, the study showcases the narrative power of consumer goods and the impact of Austrian literature and its writers on the idyllic national brand that stands in stark contrast to a troubled past.
