    Writing on Writing: Literary Theory Reading List

    Our recent publication of Marx’s Literary Style has us reflecting on some of the other great works of Literary Theory that we’ve published over the years. It inspired us to make this reading list, loaded with key texts from writers like Fredric Jameson, Valery Podoroga, Oscar Wilde, and others that will pair nicely with our publication of Ludovico Silva’s wonderful analysis.
