Catastrophe and Imagination

English and American Writings from 1870 to 1950

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book is a direct product of World War II, of the long years at sea that gave the author the feeling that the past was no more than an illusion. He compares past with present, one nation with another, to clarify the conviction that the nature of imaginative fiction had been altered by our wars.
