'...a book which should be read by all students contemplating enrolment for a university course in modern English or European literary studies.' - Roy Harris, Times Higher Education Supplement Eliot to Derrida is a sardonic portrait of the cult of the specialist interpreter, from I.A.

For anyone disenchanted with the extravagant claims - and leaden prose - of literary theorists, this will be an exhilarating book.
