  • THE NOVEL of the FUTURE Introduction by Deirdre Bair
    anaïs nin THE NOVEL OF THE FUTURE Introduction by Deirdre Bair SWALLOW PRESS / OHIO UNIVERSITY PRESS ATHENS, OHIO Introduction by Deirdre Bair xi : ix Realism is a bad word. In a sense everything is realistic. I see no line between the imaginary and the real. I see much reality in the imagination.—Federico Fellini from Interviews with Film Directors Introduction Deirdre Bair Anaïs Nin wanted her readers to know from the outset where she stood on the subject of contemporary literature, so she wrote her own introduction for the original publication of The Novel of the Future in 1968. It still stands today as an effective overview of this fascinating slim volume, one of only two works of literary criticism she wrote. The other, D. H. Lawrence: An Unprofessional Study, is one of her earliest writings, while The Novel of the Future is one of her last. They stand as bookends that bracket and enclose every- thing else, the diaries as well as the fiction; and just as the Lawrence study sets forth many of her earliest thoughts about literature, The Novel of the Future demonstrates that she still held fast to them so many years later. The book is an honest and open statement of her literary credo and thus an important text for those who wish to understand this highly original writer. Sharon Spencer, one of Anaïs Nin’s most astute critics, says that this book “clearly details Nin’s convictions about writing” and fur- ther declares that it “flows beyond the boundaries announced by its title into the realms of psychology, personal growth, aesthetic

It can seemingly be linked to the distinctiveness of that region as compared to the rest of the United States—a distinctiveness that has been brought about by historical, geographical, socio­ logical and economi c factors. Basing the discussion on the theory of Philip Thomson, who d efines the grotesque as "the unresolved clash between in­ compatibles in work and re sponse," various critical approaches to the Southern grotesque are examined, all of which are found to be too all-embracing. An e ffort is then made t o analyse the grotesque as displayed particularly in Caldwell, Capote, Faulkner, Goyen, McCullers, O'Connor and W elty.

  • THE RURAL QUEER EXPERIENCE in TWENTIETH-CENTURY AMERICAN FICTION by Eric Hughes a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment
    THE RURAL QUEER EXPERIENCE IN TWENTIETH-CENTURY AMERICAN FICTION by Eric Hughes A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Middle Tennessee State University May 2021 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Will Brantley, Chair Dr. Allen Hibbard Dr. Mischa Renfroe ABSTRACT A common view of nonurban areas in the United States posits that rural communities and small towns are hegemonically heterosexual and gender conforming or inherently inhospitable to queer individuals. Queer studies have often reaffirmed these commonly held beliefs, as evident in a text such as David M. Halperin’s How to Be Gay (2012). With Kath Weston’s seminal “Get Thee to a Big City” (1995), a few commentators began to question this urban bias, or what J. Jack Halberstam labels “metronormativity.” Literary studies, however, have been late to take the “rural turn.” This dissertation thus examines the ways in which American writers from across the century and in diverse geographical areas have resisted queer urbanism through engagements with the urban/rural dichotomy. Chapter one focuses on Willa Cather and Sherwood Anderson, detailing Cather’s portrayal of queer cosmopolitanism and urbanity in short stories from The Troll Garden (1905), and pairing Cather’s A Lost Lady (1923) with Anderson’s Poor White (1920) to show how these writers challenged sexual norms in the modernizing Midwest. Chapter two examines Carson McCullers’s The Ballad of the Sad Café (1943) and The Member of the Wedding (1946) along with Truman Capote’s Other Voices, Other Rooms (1948) and The Grass Harp (1951), centering on representations of gender and sexual nonconformity in small southern towns.

  • Item More Personal, More Unique, And, Therefore More Representative of the Experience of the Book Itself
    Q&B Quill & Brush (301) 874-3200 Fax: (301)874-0824 E-mail: [email protected] Home Page: http://www.qbbooks.com A dear friend of ours, who is herself an author, once asked, “But why do these people want me to sign their books?” I didn’t have a ready answer, but have reflected on the question ever since. Why Signed Books? Reading is pure pleasure, and we tend to develop affection for the people who bring us such pleasure. Even when we discuss books for a living, or in a book club, or with our spouses or co- workers, reading is still a very personal, solo pursuit. For most collectors, a signature in a book is one way to make a mass-produced item more personal, more unique, and, therefore more representative of the experience of the book itself. Few of us have the opportunity to meet the authors we love face-to-face, but a book signed by an author is often the next best thing—it brings us that much closer to the author, proof positive that they have held it in their own hands. Of course, for others, there is a cost analysis, a running thought-process that goes something like this: “If I’m going to invest in a book, I might as well buy a first edition, and if I’m going to invest in a first edition, I might as well buy a signed copy.” In other words we want the best possible copy—if nothing else, it is at least one way to hedge the bet that the book will go up in value, or, nowadays, retain its value.

    T December 9,1983 X AS BSERVER William Goyen 1915.1983 A JournalofFreeVoices In ThisIssue: (See page12) Photo by J. Gary Dontzig 75C • PAGE TWO • A Mattox McDade Preview Austin ATHER'S DAY, 1983, and Houston attorney Thomas R. McDade is honoring his with lunch at the River F Oaks Country Club. On the way in — or out — of the dining room, the elder Mr. McDade in tow, he spots in the practice-putting area a colleague, Wiley Caldwell, a Fulbright & Jaworski senior partner, head of the firm's government bond division. McDade steers his father toward Caldwell, but, as McDade testified in Austin recently, "Mr. Caldwell barely spoke to me. He was very, very upset. I had walked over to speak to him, and he said, 'You've done it; I need to talk to you. .!' " Tom McDade, in his mid-40s, is a tall, white-haired, imposing fellow — in the man-of-wealth/power/assurance mold, sort of a John Connally junior grade. He is, by all accounts, a no-holds-barred trial lawyer with a reputation for attacking opponents so aggressively they frequently settle out of court rather than endure the McDade treatment. And here he was on Father's Day, humiliated: "I was trying to introduce my father to a partner, and he would barely speak to me. I decided that maybe I better get busy and see if I could solve this problem." "This problem," the reason five months later he was in an Austin courtroom enduring with thinly concealed impatience the questions of an Austin defense attorney, was an enraged attorney general.

Why is he better known in Germany and France than the USA?By Edward SwiftWilliam Goyen is one of my favorite writers. Trinity is very near Woodville, my hope town. This book is an in depth study of the man through his work and his personal life. It is not a fast read. It helps to know his stories and novels but it is not necessary because the author gives ample synopsis.
