Love and death in the American novel

Sobre el libro Love and death in the American novel de Leslie A Fiedler publicado por Dalkey Archive Press al 2003:

This groundbreaking work views in depth both American literature and character from the time of the American Revolution to the present. From it, there emerges Fiedler´s once scandalous -now increasingly accepted- judgment that our literature is incapable of dealing with adult sexuality and is pathologically obsessed with death.
