Abstract

The experimental fiction of Djuna Barnes seems radically removed from the world of comic art. Her early career working in the yellow press is frequently dismissed as the by-product of an understandable if unseemly attraction for mass culture; Barnes, after all, was just a teenager at the time and had just moved to New York City. Others rationalize her early career as hack work
