Talking Horse
by Bernard Malamud
Bernard Malamud, author of such acclaimed novels as The Fixer and The Natural and winner of two National Book Awards and a Pulitzer Prize, is widely recognized as one of the most important and enduring of American writers. Yet because he was intensely private about the way he worked, few readers are aware of his extraordinarily prolific expression of his commitment to the writing process. Including a wealth of never-before-published material, Talking Horse is designed to provide writers with insights into the way a master thought about and practiced his craft. This unique collection includes speeches, interviews, lesson plans, essays, and a series of previously unpublished notes on the nature of fiction, all of which offer an unparalleled look at the writing life. Each section of the book includes a headnote by Nicholas Delbanco or Alan Cheuse.
Unlimited Embrace
by Reed Woodhouse
In this book, a gay literary critic evaluates a half-century of fictional works "by, for, and about" homosexual men and situates them in the context of an emerging American gay culture. Reed Woodhouse shows how the best gay fiction of the period, like all good literature, not only reflected but anticipated social changes that were afoot - from the founding of the first enduring gay rights organizations through the Stonewall riots to the ambiguous mainstreaming of homosexuality that continues today.
Structures of the Jazz Age
by Chip Rhodes
Unraveling the cultural and intellectual landscape of 1920's America, author Chip Rhodes contrasts the truth of cliches that held the imagination about the lost generation of writers, the era of mass consumption, and the silver screen, while revealing their roots in a conservative ideology that helped sustain Republican rule until the stock market crash of 1929.
Lesbian Pulp Fiction
by
The author explores the world of lesbian pulp fiction, taking readers deep inside this under-the-surface literary phenomenon that fueled hundreds of cheap paperback novels after World War II and appealed to both heterosexual men and gay women alike. Original.
