Love & Death in the Amer Novel
This foundational work of criticism argues that the American novel is inherently gothic, driven by a deep-seated unease with sexuality and an abiding fascination with violence and death. Fiedler masterfully excavates this dark undercurrent in works from Poe to Faulkner, revealing how America's unique cultural landscape shaped its literature. Readers interested in a provocative, high-energy exploration of the American psyche through its classic stories will find this an exhilarating and mind-expanding read.
