Sherwood Anderson: A Biographical and Critical Study

By (author) Irving Howe

normal price: R 4 572.95

| book description |

Originally published in 1951 and reissued in 1966 this book combines stimulating biography with sound literary criticism in its account of a writer who observed America’s great nineteenth century change from an agrarian to an industrial society. Irving Howe places Anderson in the cultural context of his times and gives a fresh and balanced judgment both of his virtues and limitations. As an artist, the author of Winesburg, Ohio and Dark Laughter was over-valued and then ignored; Howe concludes that the best of Anderson’s work is a durable part of the American literary structure and an enrichment of the American imagination.
