The author discovers obscure texts on Lithuania and alerts Western and Eastern academia to their significance as well as the reasons for their neglect. For the first time, Abraham Cahan’s autobiography The Education of Abraham Cahan and Ezra Brudno’s autobiographical novel The Fugitive receive an extensive coverage, while Goldie Stone’s My Caravan of Years and Margaret Seebach’s That Man Donaleitis (sic) receive their first scholarly consideration ever. The author argues that misrepresentations, misattributions and exclusions of Lithuanian legacy in the U.S. were produced by major political events of the twentieth century.On the boundary of two worlds ;10.Discovery of Lithuania in American fictionLithuania in American fictionAmerican fictionHistory and criticismLithuaniaIn literatureAmerican fictionHistory and criticism.813.009Paulauskiene Ausra1605466MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910811253903321Lost and found3930730UNINA
