In focusing on Munro, Francesconi draws attention to a writer whose body of work has been adapted widely across television and film for an international market over several decades, offering a diachronic overview and insights into the confluence of socio-cultural contexts, audiences, and dynamics of production and distribution across adaptations. The volume complements this perspective with a microanalysis of the adaptations themselves, exploring the varied creative use of audio-visual dimensions, including sound, light, and movement. The book seeks to overcome simplified fidelity-based understandings of screen adaptations more broadly, showcasing creative multi-layered approaches to a creator’s oeuvre to effect true transformation across media and modes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe volume will be of interest to scholars in multimodality, adaptation studies, film studies, and comparative literature.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45566357471470,"sku":"9781032025476","price":77.59,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/multimodal-stylistic-approach-to-screen-adaptations-of-the-work-of-alice-munro-hardback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
