| Abstract |
|
“The release of Overture in its serialized format allows new readers to experience the delicious torture of delayed gratification that the original readers of Sandman knew well. In “Warming Up the Strings,” Tara Prescott performs a close reading of issue #1 with an eye to the reader’s experience of Overture in its serialized format and the ways in which Gaiman uses the genre to reinvent his own myth.” (“Introduction”, S. 7)
