Posnock, Ross.
Summary: Renunciation as a creative force in the careers of writers, philosophers, and artists is the animating idea behind Ross Posnock s new book. Taking up acts of abandonment, rejection, and refusal that have long baffled critics, he shows how renunciation has reframed the relationship of artists and intellectuals to society in productive and unpredictable ways.
