Hardcover. Etat : New. XII-345 pages ; 22 cm. Per Seyersted's Robert Cantwell: An American 1930s RadicalWriter and His Apostasy is an exceedingly unusual, inventive, anddistinguished contribution to 20th century United States cultural,intellectual, and political history in several respects. Seyersted'sfocus is on the career of Robert Cantwell, a promising novelistfrom the Northwestern United States who was a much-admiredpro-Communist literary talent in the early 1930s, but who steadilyevolved to the Right and vanished into the relative obscurity ofthe mass market publishing industry in subsequent decades.Cantwell's name is certainly recognizable to most scholars ofUnited States literary radicalism, but the central mystery of -whathappened? to him has never been explained.
