McKnight, Chaplin, Joyce, Melville-Roots and Branches of the Modern Mind uses a spellbinding combination of astute research and articulate argument to discover the creative seeds of the singularly imaginative minds of three great men. Students of film or literature may feel as if everything has already been unearthed regarding these important artists.
