About the Author 229
On the heels of the Great Depression and staring into the abyss of a global
war, American writers took fiction and literature în a new direction
that addressed the chaos the nation—and the world—was facing. These
authors spoke to the human condition in traumatic times, and their works
reflected the dreams, aspirations, values, and hopes of people living in the World
War II era.
In From Native Son to King’s Men; The Literary Landscape of 1940s America,
Robert McParland examines notable works published throughout the decade.
Among the authors covered are James Baldwin, Pearl S. Buck, James Gould
Cozzens, William Faulkner, Ernest Hemingway, John Mersey, Norman Mailer,
Ann Petry, Irwin Shaw, John Steinbeck, Robert Penn Warren, Eudora Welty, and
Richard Wright. McParland explores how popular novels, literary fiction, and even
short stories by these authors represented this pivotal period in American culture.
This book reveals how the literature of the 1940s helped readers of that era
understand the world around them, but also provides today’s readers with a way
of comprehending the past and present. From Native Son to King’s Men will appeal
to anyone interested in the cultural climate of the 1940s and how this period was
depicted in American literature.
