The Volume includes discussions on the American tradition of poetry as reflected in and enriched by the poetry of Robert Frost; then moving through Tennessee Williams, Arthur Miller, Sylvia Plath and Philip Roth and finally focuses on Ernest Hemingway. Seven highly perceptive studies by eminent scholars on different aspects of Hemingway offer substantial meat as much for Hemingway scholars as for anybody interested in this great Nobel Laureate of keen active interest in the celebration of life in diverse ways. Anybody who is interested in American Literature will find this book extremely interesting. Teachers, scholars, and students of American literature will also find the book useful because of the authors’ masterly handling of some major American writers and texts. About the Author Mohit K.
