Where is American Literature explores how American literature emerged over space as well as over time, asking us in the process to reconsider familiar stories of national literary development and culture. The book explores the history of the idea of American literature, as a series of collaborations, and points to future directions of study in the field. It shows how distinctive geographic areas constitute a dynamic range of literary practices and movements that come to comprise American writing, and deconstructs the routine chronological divisions usually made in the field.
Where is American Literature? offers a spirited and compelling argument for rethinking the way we view American literature in relation to the nation while powerfully demonstrating why it continues to matter in a global age.
