This "glorious, evocative, literary novel for the ages" (Los
Angeles Times) has finally taken its place within the great canon
of American fiction. Set during the Great Depression, against a
backdrop of New York's glimmering skyscrapers and Los Angeles's
seedy motor courts, this autobiographical work concludes the
unparalleled saga of Henry Roth, whose classic Call It Sleep,
published in 1934, went on to become one of Time's 100 best
American novels of the twentieth century. With echoes of Nathanael
West and John Steinbeck, An American Type is a heartrending
statement about American identity and the universal transcendence
of love.
