Summary Combining literary analysis with a practical introduction to interdisciplinary literary geography, Literary Geographies examines key elements of Colum McCann's 2009 novel, "Let the Great World Spin". Looking at the novel as socio-spatial and intertextual interactions involving author, editor, publisher, and reader, the book offers a new way to look at narrative settings, literary space, and the geographies of creation, production, and reception. Here, Sheila Hones combines literary analysis with a practical introduction to interdisciplinary literary geography
