Cover of John Metcalf: An Aesthetic Underground (ePUB)

‘John Metcalf has written some of the very best stories ever published in this country.’—Alice Munro

The Argus-eyed editor; the magisterial prose stylist; the waggish, inflammatory cultural critic; the mentor and iconoclast. John Metcalf is a literary legend whose memoir maps the underground he labored tirelessly to establish.
