of America s kaleidoscopic literary tradition, AJourney Through
American Literature illuminates the authors, works, and events that have shaped
our cultural heritage. Kevin
J
.
Hayes charts this history through a series of
approachable thematic chapters
—
Narrative Voice and the Short Story, The Drama
of the Everyday, The Great American Novel, and others
—
that reveal the richness
of American literature while providing a compelling set of footholds with which
to engage it. Among the topics covered are the role of travel and the symbolism
of geography, characters and the importance of voice and dialect, self-definition
and the American dream, new beginnings, and the role of memory. Hayes not
only discusses the main canonical genres like poetry, drama, and the novel, but
also looks at travel writing, autobiography, and frame tales. Key writers like Mark
Twain, Ralph Ellison, Emily Dickinson, and Harriet Jacobs are central players in
the drama while dozens more create a backdrop that gives this history depth. The
book also features over 2O illustrations, a bibliography, and a chronology listing
the key events and works in America s literary history.
