Roaring Twenties Literature.

Catalog description

Focus on literature dramatizing the roaring, irrepressible twenties, a decade of unprecedented change following the "Great War to end all wars." Highlighting Fitzgerald, whose life mirrors the times, also includes other "expatriate" writers such as Wharton, Dos Passos, Stein, Eliot, and Hemingway, who looked at America from an overseas perspective and reflected on the changes in communication, sensibility, and values resulting from the new freedom of this revolutionary, liminal period.
