How can the concepts of Deleuze and Guattari be used to unearth the ‘metaphysics’ of modernist literature? This intersection of philosophy and key literary works uses their radical concepts to draw a dynamic map of modernism that explores the confrontation of each writer with the non-human machine age of the early twentieth-century.
