Stephen R. Donaldson and the modern epic vision

a critical study of the "Chronicles of Thomas Covenant" novels

  • 1 Want to read

"Donaldson, it is argued, reclaims an epic vision in his Thomas Covenant novels that is lacking in most modern literature. Chapters demonstrate how this use of epic heroism helps solve seemingly insurmountable problems and provides more meaning and purpose for individuals"--Provided by publisher.
