This Companion offers a compelling survey of American literature in
the 1930s. These thirteen new essays by accomplished scholars in
the field provide re-examinations of crucial trends in the decade:
the rise of the proletarian novel; the intersection of radical
politics and experimental aesthetics; the documentary turn; the
rise of left-wing theatres; popular fictional genres; the impact of
Marxist thought on African-American historical writing; the
relation of modernist prose to mass entertainment. Placing such
issues in their political and economic contexts, this Companion
constitutes an excellent introduction to a vital area of critical
and scholarly inquiry. This collection also functions as a valuable
reference guide to Depression-era cultural practice, furnishing
readers with a chronology of important historical events in the
decade and crucial publication dates, as well as a wide-ranging
bibliography for those interested in reading further into the
field.
