What America Read: Taste, Class, and the Novel, 1920-1960

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Despite the vigorous study of modern American fiction, today`s readers are only familiar with a partial shelf of a vast library. Gordon Hutner describes the distorted, canonized history of the twentieth-century American novel as a record of modern classics insufficiently appreciated in their day but recuperated by scholars in order to shape the grand tradition of Hemingway, Fitzgerald, and Faulkner. In presenting literary history this way, Hutner argues, scholars have forgotten a rich treasury of realist novels that recount the story of America`s confrontation with modernity.Hutner explains that realist novels were frequently lauded when they first appeared. They are almost completely unread now, he contends, largely because they record the middle-class encounter with modern life. This middle-class realism, Hutner shows, reveals a surprising engagement with the social issues that most fully challenged readers in the United States, including race relations, politics, immigration, and… [detailed...]

Aaron Raz Link, Hilda Raz
What Becomes You (American Lives)

2008 y.
Publisher: Bison Books
Description: A blend of essay, memoir and intergenerational dialogue, this title is stranger-and smarter-than the average transsexual memoir. Link narrates his transition from female to male over the first 200 pages, interspersed with his views on everything from taxonomy to the difference between L.A. and Nebraska. His writing is hilarious, thoughtful and often poetic, but also frequently challenging. Discussing the general-knowledge concept that transsexuals feel `trapped` in their bodies, he points out that `If I`d dealt with my discomfort by getting rid of my body, I would now be dead.` He deftly avoids gender stereotypes at the same time he demonstrates the new chance at life his transformation has given him. Link`s mom, Raz, takes over for the next 100 pages, reflecting on her part in her daughter`s transformation, her feelings and how they`ve changed, and her eventual acceptance of the son Link became. Even without the narrative hijacking two-thirds through, Link and Raz`s book is a weird… [detailed...]
