The Short Story in Midcentury America: Countercultural Form in the Work of Bowles, McCarthy, Welty, and Williams
Sam V. H. Reese
Provides in-depth case studies of four major writers of the post-World War II era - Paul Bowles, Mary McCarthy, Eudora Welty, and Tennessee Williams - examining how they used the contained aesthetics of short fiction to map out an oppositional stance to the dominant narratives, both political and literary, of mid-twentieth century US culture.
