Descrizione The Sacred Game
This book is a meditation on the theme of provincialism in American literature. With careful attention to the historical context, it identifies in the expressions of pre-Civil War writers certain qualities of self-doubt and defensiveness, certain perceptions of displacement and decline, so characteristic as to amount to a defining trait of American literature.
