Bruce Kellner worked directly from the collection of
often-overlooked novelist Donald Windham to produce this reference
work. Entries on books, pamphlets, articles and criticism provided
a comprehensive record of Windham's literary development, critical
reception, failures, and achievements. According to Kellner, the
public has yet to fully embrace the quiet eloquence of Windham's
work; like authors Herman Melville and Gertrude Stein, he may be
vindicated by time. Kellner introduces the bio-bibliography with a
discussion of Donald Windham's background, writing style, and
reception by publishers and readers. He likens Windham's subtle
style to E.M. Forster, and he suggests that America's
action-oriented culture lacks patience for Windham's offerings,
which are homosexual but not erotic, Southern but not gothic. The
book, which includes an addendum to the introduction by Windham
himself, is divided into five parts: Books and Pamphlets, Books and
Pamphlets with Contributions, Contributions to Periodicals,
Ephemera, and Criticism and Biography. This book is valuable to
students, scholars, and general audiences of literature.
