Neculai, Catalina,

Urban space and late twentieth-century New York literature :reformed geographies /Catalina Neculai. - 1 online resource. - American Literature Readings in the 21st Century. - American literature readings in the 21st century..

Includes bibliographical references.

Prologue: Urban hermeneutics and the problem of the fetish space -- The paradigmatic exceptionality of New York: scaffolding a radical literary urbanism -- Downtown, uptown and the urbanization of literary consciousness -- Scale, culture and real estate: the reproduction of lowliness in Great Jones Street -- Kill the poor: low rent aesthetics and the new housing order -- Uneven city: brightness falls and the ethnography of fictitious finance -- Epilogue: The politics of urban writing and the hegemony of fire.

How does literary production respond to processes of urbanization? What do literary and cultural representations tell us about urban practices? Guided by these questions, Urban Space and Late Twentieth-Century New York Literature theorizes literary geography anew by examining writers' responses to the uneven development of New York City. Catalina Neculai offers a rich critique of literature written during the consolidation of the Finance, Insurance and Real Estate (FIRE) industry in the 1970s and 1980s. Whether it is about the culture industries, gentrification, housing movements, or the finance economy, here New York literature becomes akin to urban fieldwork that produces knowledge of space and engages with the politics of place. Interdisciplinary in conception and design, the book draws on fiction, non-fiction, grassroots narratives, archival material, radical Marxist geography, urban politics, and urban history.
