The American Writer

Sinopse

"Having considered the subject for more than sixty years, Jack Cady shares his knowledge of the American writer in this book. The American Writer is both an open letter to young writers and a lovely overview for anyone interested in reading."--BOOK JACKET. "Cady traces the threads of sin and original good in American literature, examines the thorny question of race, and explores the fantastic in modern fiction. He looks anew at familiar writers like Hemingway and Steinbeck, and repeatedly focuses on storytellers who have fallen out of favor today."--BOOK JACKET.
