Writing Time: Modernism, Memory, and Desire available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. "Writing Time: Modernism, Memory, and Desire" places T.S. Eliot and Virginia Woolf side by side for the first time in a full-length study to argue that despite political and aesthetic differences, and their explicit avowal of the modernist credo to "make it new," both writers persistently turned to the past, and when they did so they figured temporality and memory in terms of sexuality and desire. The project explores what kinds of work memory does in British and American modernism; how memory is constructed vis a vis sexual and textual forms of desire; what ethics Eliot and Woolf developed around sites of memory and desire; and, where and why memory fails.

Eliot and Virginia Woolf were almost exact contemporaries, readers and critics of each others' work, and friends for over twenty years. Their writings, though, are rarely paired. Modernism, Memory, and Desire proposes that some striking correspondences exist in Eliot and Woolf's poetic, fictional, critical, and autobiographical texts, particularly in their recurring turn to the language of desire, sensuality, and the body to render memory's processes. The book includes extensive archival research on some mostly unknown bawdy poetry by T. S. Eliot while offering readings of major work by both writers, including The Waste Land, 'The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock', Orlando and To the Lighthouse. McIntire juxtaposes Eliot and Woolf with several major modernist thinkers of memory, including Sigmund Freud, Friedrich Nietzsche, Henri Bergson and Walter Benjamin, to offer compelling reconsiderations of the relation between textuality, remembrance and the body in modernist literature.

Novels by Proust, Woolf, and Nabokov have been read as expressions of a desire to transcend time. Hägglund gives them another reading entirely: fear of time and death is generated by investment in temporal life. Engaging with Freud and Lacan, he opens a new way of reading the dramas of desire as they are staged in both philosophy and literature.
