An extraordinary effort. The Suburb of Dissent will have a broad appeal to that growing cohort of scholars interested in 'revisioning' the literary 1930s. - Paul Buhle, New York University Irr provides a kaleidoscopic view of the recurring themes dominating 1930s intellectuals' writings. . . . The Suburb of Dissent will broaden the range of 1930s scholarship by insisting that the literature of American class conflict can only be fully understood comparatively. -Paula Rabinowitz, University of Minnesota


“An extraordinary effort. The Suburb of Dissent will have a broad appeal to that growing cohort of scholars interested in ‘revisioning’ the literary 1930s.”— Paul Buhle, New York University


[A]ll of Irr's readings force us to look beyond our stereotypes of the 1930s and to begin the harder work of sorting out the 'actually existing cultural formations' that characterized the period. This alone should earn The Suburb of Dissent a place on the bookshelf of those interested either in the 1930s or twentieth-century literary history more generally. <br>--Andrew Hoberek, Modernism/Modernity
