American Superrealism: Nathanael West and the Politics of Representation in the 1930s
University of Wisconsin Press
This study of ""apocalyptic writer"" Nathanael West examines his body of work, exploring his distinctive method of negation. Locating him in an American avant-garde tradition, the author considers the possibilities and limitations of dada and surrealism as modes of social criticism.
