Look at "The Literary Book of Economics, Including Readings from Literature and Drama on Economic Concepts, Issues and Themes", edited with commentary by Michael Watts, ISI Books, 2003. Authors range from Sherwood Anderson and Bastiat to Twain and Vonnegut. Peter Kennedy calls it "a fine work of scholarship, sure to be an interesting read to all literary-minded economists".

Dear all,

I’m looking for books/essays by economists that think about the intersection between the literary (fiction, narrative, specific novels, poems, etc.) and economics. Examples are Akerloff/Shiller on ‘Stories’ or ‘Narrative Economics’ and McCloskey’s work on rhetoric.

Any pointers are appreciated.

All best,
Carolin Benack
