Abstract
Love Will Tear Us Apart: A Novella is the culmination of "The Evolution of the
Modernist Novel," a concentration formed out of graduate coursework in the area of
modernist literature. This novella, most profoundly inspired by Virginia Woolf's 1931
novel, The Waves, traces the intertwining lives of five young adults over a period of three
years and explores the depths and challenges of human communication in keeping with
the modernist tradition. Various thematic and stylistic elements are influenced by the
works of modernist writers Virginia Woolf, T.S. Eliot, James Joyce, and William
Faulkner, as well as more contemporary writers such as Margaret Atwood and Raymond
Carver.
