{"product_id":"9781138259805","title":"Music in the Words: Musical Form and Counterpoint in the Twentieth-Century Novel","description":"\u003cp\u003eCan a novel follow the form of a symphony and still succeed as a novel? Can musical counterpoint be mimicked by words on a page? Alan Shockley begins looking for answers by examining music''s appeal for novelists and exploring two brief works, a prose fugue by Douglas Hofstadter, and a short story by Anthony Burgess modeled after a Mozart symphony. Analyses of three large, emblematic attempts at musical writing follow along with discussions on two recent brief novels. From the perspective of a composer, Shockley offers the reader fresh tools for approaching these dense and often daunting texts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42594185609291,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":3030.17,"currency_code":"THB","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0641\/0023\/7387\/files\/9781138259805-1.jpg?v=1783388680","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.co.th\/products\/9781138259805","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Thailand","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
