Gore Vidal

A Critical Companion

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Baker and Gibson show that while Vidal's novels are tremendously entertaining, they are also serious examinations of a recurring themeâ the decline of the West in general and the decline of the United States in particular. A biographical sketch of the writer precedes a general discussion of Vidal's early novels.
