Boswell and Mrs. MillerThis compulsively readable collection of profiles and essays by James Campbell, tied together by a beguiling autobiographical thread, proffers unique observations on writers and writing in the post-1950s period. Campbell considers writers associated with the New Yorker magazine, including John Updike, William Maxwell, Truman Capote, and Jonathan Franzen. Continuing his longterm engagement with African American authors, he offers an account of his legal battle with the FBI over James Baldwin's file and a new profile of Amiri Baraka. He also focuses on the Beat poets Gary Snyder and Allen Ginsberg, as well as writers such as Edmund White and Thom Gunn. Campbell's concluding essay on his childhood in Scotland gracefully connects the book's autobiographical dots.American literature20th centuryHistory and criticismAmerican literatureAfrican American authorsHistory and criticismBeat generationAuthors, Scottish20th centuryBiographyNew York (N.Y.)Intellectual life20th centuryElectronic books.American literatureHistory and criticism.American literatureAfrican American authorsHistory and criticism.Beat generation.Authors, Scottish810.9/97471Campbell James1951-166795MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452741003321Syncopations2489728UNINA01410nam0 22002891i 450 UON0007115420231205102351.46520020107d1992 |0itac50 baitaIT|||| |||||La produzione poetica nel Kuwait fino al 1989Fathi MakboulNapoli : D.S.R.A.P.A.
