Beskrivelse af Michael Chabon's America
Author Michael Chabon is acutely attuned to life in contemporary America, providing insight into the history of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries in novels such as The Mysteries of Pittsburgh (1988), Wonder Boys (1995), and Telegraph Avenue (2012). The Pulitzer prizeΓÇôwinning author of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay, Chabon follows in the footsteps of past stylists, writing across multiple genres that include young-adult literature, essays, and screenplays. Despite his broad success, however, ChabonΓÇÖs work has not been adequately examined from a critical perspective.Michael ChabonΓÇÖs America: Magical Words, Secret Worlds, and Sacred Spaces is the first scholarly collection of essays analyzing the work of the acclaimed author. This book demonstrates how Chabon uses a broad range of styles and genres, including detective and comic book fiction, to define the American experience. These essays assess and analyze ChabonΓÇÖs complete oeuvre, demonstrating his deep connection to the contemporary world and his place as a literary force.Providing a context for understanding the authorΓÇÖs work from cultural, historical, and stylistic perspectives, Michael ChabonΓÇÖs America is a valuable study of a celebrated author whose work deserves close examination.
