Repression and Realism in Post-War American Literature (American Literature Readings in the 21st Century)

Repression and Realism in Post-War American Literature (American Literature Readings in the 21st Century) by E. Mercer

This study of fiction produced in America in the decade following 1945 examines literature by writers such as Kerouac and Bellow. It examines how, though such fiction seemed to resolutely avoid the events and implications of World War II, it was still suffused with dread and suggestions of war in imagery and language.
