Nelson Algren : A Collection of Critical Essays Hardback
Edited by Robert Ward
Hardback
Description
Eleven essays on Algren’s major work offer a diverse and lively range of theoretical and historical readings— including discussions of Algren’s place in Chicago’s left-wing literary tradition, the aesthetic of American and European naturalism, and his reaction to, and reception in, the Cold War milieu of the 1940s and 1950s.
Consideration is also given to the ways in which paperback cover designs shaped the reception of Algren’s novels as pulp fiction.
