Description
Jewish American literature holds an essential place in the literary history of the United States. It is supposed to be the first ethnic literature that achieved great influence in the U.S. and reached its mature expression in the post-war "Jewish American novels" of Henry Roth, Saul Bellow, J.D. Salinger, Norman Mailer, Bernard Malamud, Chaim Potok, and Philip Roth. This book concentrates on the work of the triad of authors - Bellow, Potok and Malamud.
