About this book

Allan H. Pasco’s Allusion looks at the way allusion works in specific fictions and how it affects the process of reading. Drawing from a wide range of French authors, Pasco uses a number of examples to show how allusions work, how texts integrate other texts to create new metaphorical constructs.
