Index


`In Love and Death in the American Novel Leslie Fiedler created a new kind of criticism, urgent and outspoken, provoking rage in some, reverence in others. In this more recent survey of the American literary scene he sees many contemporary novels as expressions of American myths, old and new-from the Old South, as represented by Faulkner, and the towering self-created myth that was Ernest Hemingway, through the sex-and-whisky revolt of the twenties and thirties (Fitzgerald and Henry Miller), to the drug culture of Kerouac, Ginsberg, and today`s `beats`. He argues that the new prominence in American writing of Jewish and Negro authors (Bellow, Mailer, Malamud, and Baldwin) reflects a wider search for identity throughout America. Whether he is discussing the revolt of the academics or the `Hollywood novel`, Professor Fiedler is the most maddeningly stimulating guide to `the world`s first post-literate culture`.`
