TRTR Chap 7 or is Eliot everywhere?Is he the original Flemish master...

[Mark Kohut]

So, here comes Fuller in this chpater and I, just like a stereotype, think of 
Invisible Man and wonder about its origin.
Parts of Invisible Man appeared, it seems, during the time Gaddis was wrting The 
Recognitions. In magazines with some buzz (Cyril Connolly published).
Then finally published complete in 1952, dated 1953. (??)

The style was goin' round...

Ellison created an open style, one that did not restrict his ideas to a movement 
but was more free-flowing in its delivery. What Ellison finally settled on was a 
style based heavily upon modern symbolism. It was the kind of symbolism that 
Ellison first encountered in the poem The Waste Land,[4] by T. S. Eliot
