The years after World War Two have seen a widespread fascination
with the free market. In this book, Michael W. Clune considers this
fascination in postwar literature. In the fictional worlds created
by works ranging from Frank O'Hara's poetry to nineties gangster
rap, the market is transformed, offering an alternative form of
life, distinct from both the social visions of the left and the
individualist ethos of the right. These ideas also provide an
unsettling example of how art takes on social power by offering an
escape from society. American Literature and the Free Market
presents a new perspective on a number of wide ranging works for
readers of American post-war literature.
