520    "What is an event? From a philosophical perspective, 
       events are irregular occurrences--moments of change and 
       interruption--categorized by human perception, language, 
       and thought. While philosophers have pored over this 
       subject extensively in recent years, The Event: Literature
       and Theory seeks to ground it: What is literature's 
       approach to the event? How does literature produce and 
       give testimony to events? Ilai Rowner's study not only 
       revisits some of the most important thinkers of our time, 
       including Maurice Blanchot, Gilles Deleuze, Jacques 
       Derrida, and Martin Heidegger, it also develops a critical
       approach to literature that questions the meaning of the 
       literary event through examinations of literary works by 
       Marcel Proust, Louis-Ferdinand Ce;line, and T.S. Eliot. 
       Rowner offers a new method of thinking about the 
       particular characteristics of the event within literary 
       works and defines the creative value of literature as the 
       aspiration toward the un-happening within the happening. 
       In this study the experience of literature--as an act of 
       both writing and reading--becomes the struggle to capture 
       the excessive movement of the event while yet revealing 
       the creative energy within the work of literature."--
