Uncontained: Urban Fiction in Postwar America
Elizabeth A. Wheeler
In the post-war era, American urban fiction was dominated by the imagery of containment. This book offers a critique of this familiar story, evident in the noir narratives of James M. Cain and in work by Ellison, Roth, Salinger, Percy, Capote and others.
