Agapē Agape and Other Writings

Gaddis's last, powerfully memorable novel features an unnamed narrator who is dying in bed, gaping in wonder and amazement at our lost capacity for sacred passion. This volume also includes a selection of Gaddis's other writings, among them his seminal essay 'The Rush for Second Place' and commentaries such as 'JR up to date' and 'On Creative writing and the National Endowment for the Arts'.
