 | Memorious Discourse: Reprise and Representation in Postmondernism ISBN# 0886640869 Reviewed by: Jerome Klinkowitz, University of Northern Iowa Names, December 2006 |
 |  |  |
Like other books of literary criticism and theory that have become the most helpful and insightful of their era, Memorious Discourse invites its readers to draw wide-ranging implications. Far from being socially unconcerned, the postmodern fiction Moraru celebrates practices great ethical responsibility, not the least because it shows where represented action really is. Not by coincidence does the age of postmodernism also serve as the age of new personal freedoms and values--for women, for minorities, for everyone. For Moraru, this may well be the ultimate name of postmodernism's game.
