Reviews
On Company Time illuminates the intersections between American literature and journalism in the decades that witnessed the professionalization of both fields., Literary critics and magazine scholars alike should find merit in On Company Time . Scholars passionate about the history of magazine media will appreciate Harris's research and relish details relevant to the development of the industry., Donal Harris's fascinating On Company Time is the book we've been waiting for to help us think through the significance of the commercially popular "big magazines" that dominated the print cultural landscape of modernity. Guiding us through magazine offices, showing us print technologies, publishing strategies, and periodical styles along the way, Harris deftly traces the mutual influence of modernism and the commercial magazines. Compelling, imaginative and entertaining, this book provides an exhilarating new view of modern print culture., On Company Time offers new perspectives on some of the twentieth century's most important writers and their relationship with some of the period's most storied publications., Donal Harris delivers an exceptionally thought out book that highlights the complexities that have shaped our modern magazine system., Writing in response to both classic and recent scholarship that represents modernism as an insulated coterie endeavor, Donal Harris convincingly and compellingly establishes that modernist authors were engaged with and appeared in mainstream magazines from the start. On Company Time enriches and expands our understanding of the dialectic between modernism and mass culture, revealing that what has frequently been seen as an antagonistic relationship was really a close collaboration that determined both the career arcs of major modernist authors and the design of mainstream magazines. Elegantly written and exhaustively researched, On Company Time is an eminent example of the New Modernist Studies., On Company Time alters forever an old story about literary modernism by showing that writers did not just take a paycheck from the big magazines. This rich and substantial consideration of the complex relations between major writers and mass-market publications shows how several modern styles were developed in collaboration by the magazines and the writers they employed. Donal Harris's account of this collaboration expands our notions of what American writing is and changes the history of how it came to be., Drawing our attention to a set of major institutions that have until now remained hidden in plain sight of recent cultural history, On Company Time makes an extraordinarily rich and persuasive contribution to the study of American literary modernism. It is also a work of relentlessly lively intelligence and writerly charm., A welcome addition to the fields of periodical and New Modernist studies, particularly in its consideration of modernism's vexed relationship with the mainstream. . . . Lucidly written and ambitious., A nuanced and provocative study. . . . On Company Time offers new perspectives on some of the twentieth century's most important writers and their relationship with some of the period's most storied publications., Harris's fascinating On Company Time is the book we have been waiting for to help us think through the significance of the commercially popular 'big magazines' that dominated the print-cultural landscape of modernity.
