Over the past twenty years, the Review of Contemporary Fiction has earned a reputation for being one of the most important journals covering contemporary literature. Through essays, excerpts and an extensive book review section, the Review is dedicated to the discussion and celebration of innovative fiction, and some of the most influential authors of the twentieth century have been featured in its pages. The spring issue of the Revew of Contemporary Fiction features a casebook study on Gilbert Sorrentino's Imaginative Qualities of Actual Things--a darkly comic recreation of the New York artistic and literary world of the 1950s and 60s told in the weary voice of a cynical and sardonic narrator.
