Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. At the cusp of the twentieth century, American literature undergoes a transformation as the nation's literary landscape shifts from the grip of literary giants like Henry James to a new generation of writers led by Booth Tarkington. This meticulously researched biography explores the life and work of the man who would come to herald in a new era of American storytelling. This examination of Tarkington's creative process analyzes the synthesis of historical romanticism and realistic satire which characterized his unique brand of American fiction, while also examining the evolution of his perspectives on class structure, morality, politics, and the American Midwest. This book sets the author's literary achievements against the backdrop of his personal history, revealing the profound impact of his formative years on his literary output. It is a revelation of the man and writer responsible for the beloved Gentleman from Indiana, Monsieur Beaucaire, and The Magnificent Ambersons, and an essential contribution to our understanding of this significant American literary figure.
