Abstract:

"Hemingway and Faulkner In Their Time is not only a valuable addition to literary scholarship, it is a unique re-creation of an era in American culture and letters, especially of "the charmed circle" of Parisian expatriates. By reprinting the actual words of contemporary writers in excerpts of criticism - the praise, insults, and gossip drawn from journals, letters, diaries, and interviews - this book marks a unique form of literary appreciation and commentary. It is as much biography as critique, a lean reference work that sometimes tells more about the commentators than their subjects." "Among the writers on the writers: Sherwood Anderson, Gertrude Stein, Alice B. Toklas, Conrad Aiken, W. H. Auden, John Dos Passos, Ezra Pound, T. S. Eliot, William Carlos Williams, Wyndham Lewis, Katherine Anne Porter, Allen Tate, Thomas Wolfe, Mary McCarthy, Edmund Wilson, Lillian Ross, and many others." "Hemingway and Faulkner In Their Time has a chronological drift, and is capped by Hemingway's acid observations on Faulkner and vice versa. The narratives of Earl Rovit and Arthur Waldhorn provide the cement that holds this mosaic portrait of the artists - observed and as observers - together."--BOOK JACKET.
