Focusing on a complex and contentious period that was formative in
shaping American society and culture in the twentieth century, this
book sheds new light on the ways in which fiction engaged with
contemporary notions of masculinity. It draws on gender theory and
analysis of writers from diverse backgrounds of race, class and
sexuality to provide rich comparative insights into the
constitution of American masculinity in fiction. The extensive
range of novels considered includes fresh analyses of key authors
such as James Baldwin, Truman Capote, Patricia Highsmith, Jack
Kerouac, Norman Mailer, Ann Petry, J. D. Salinger and Gore Vidal.
