Sixteen major American novelists of the first half of the twentieth century are covered in this volume. Each section begins with an annotated list of general studies devoted to the author at hand; this is followed by entries keyed to specific novels, listed in alphabetical order. In almost all cases the titles cited are book-length works readily available in academic and public libraries; shorter and more arcane and specialized studies have not been cited.
