Title: The literary career of proletarian novelist and New Yorker short story writer Edward Newhouse
Description: "This is the first study on Edward Newhouse, who wrote proletarian novels in the 1930s, short stories about life during the Great Depression, and went on to a thirty-year career with the New Yorker. He has been a friend of many of the literary giants of the 20th century. His writings from 1929 to 1965 (when he retired from a literary career) are instructive for both an understanding of the radical mindset and as an example of the late manifestation of American literary realism.

The author interviewed Edward Newhouse in his home in 1996, and includes these insights as a basis for his analysis of the literary work."--BOOK JACKET.
