Surface and Depth offers a fresh interpretation of the unity of American culture. This book focuses on a pervasive zeal for knowing or making things accessible. It traces this compulsion in religion, landscape, politics, and popular entertainment, and explores the complex engagement of American literature with the mandate of legibility.
