The Politics of Male Friendship in Contemporary American Fiction


Add your own review!

Overview

How might our friendships shape our politics? This book examines how contemporary American fiction has rediscovered the concept of civic friendship and revived a long tradition of imagining male friendship as interlinked with the promises and paradoxes of democracy in the United States. Bringing into dialogue the work of a wide range of authors including Philip Roth, Paul Auster, Michael Chabon, Jonathan Lethem, Dinaw Mengestu, and Teju Cole this innovative study advances a compelling new account of the political and intellectual fabric of the American novel today.
