  • "Nabokov - Borges - Ellison - Bellow - Heller - Purdy - Hawkes - Barth - Plath - Updike - Roth - Mailer - Kesey."@en
  • "Offers a penetrating critical commentary on the works of twenty-five contemporary novelists including Barth, Mailer, Bellow, Heller, Updike and Malamud."
  • "The decades 1950-1970 proved to be one of the most creative and excitingly experimental periods in the history of American fiction. Since Hemingway and Faulkner passed from the scene, American novelists have shown an almost bewildering ability to define and explore new fictional areas and develop challengingly original narrative techniques. His study ranges from the social-psychological comedies of Saul Bellow to the intricate nightmares of William Burroughs, the provocative experiments of Norman Mailer, the futuristic satires of Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., and the philosophical extravaganzas of John Barth."@en
