Situating post-WWII New York literature within the material context of American urban history, this work analyzes criticism the spatial restructuring of post-WWII New York City. Rejecting the dominant trends in post-WWII American urbanism-from International Style Modernist corporate architecture to suburban sprawl--as material expressions of corporate capitalism, these writers attempted to imagine alternative, more democratic and more multicultural, urban possibilities.
