American letters in the 1920s
Frederick J. Hoffman’s revised study examines the 1920s as a turbulent period in American life and literary culture. It connects the era’s social atmosphere with the writers who sought out new forms for representing their moment, framing literary experimentation as part of a broader decade in transition. With its emphasis on both historical context and the changing work of American authors, Twenties offers a focused critical lens on a period often associated with cultural and artistic change.
