Literature of Extreme Poverty in the Great Depression

Beschreibung

The Literature of Extreme Poverty in the Great Depression recovers a mostly forgotten record of how the people who lived through the Depression understood its suffering in novels, stories, poems, and political cartoons. It brings to light a vast archive of literary and pictorial analogues to the famous documentary photographs that burned the Depression into American visual memory.
