'Confessional' Writing and the Twentieth-Century Literary Imagination by M. Sherwin, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Far from being a unique, defining property of the confessional poets, confessionalism is a central trope of American literature. This book examines confessional writing not as a private, apolitical art, but rather one that demonstrates an engagement with the politics of literary influence, of gender relations, and of American culture more broadly. | 'Confessional' Writing and the Twentieth-Century Literary Imagination by M.
