ISBN:  9780674051157 0674051157 Description:  xii, 567 p. ; 25 cm Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references (pages 467-537) and index. Summary:  "The idea of 'the great American novel' continues to thrive almost as vigorously as in its nineteenth-century heyday, defying 150 years of attempts to dismiss it as amateurish or obsolete. In this landmark book, the first in many years to take in the whole sweep of national fiction, Lawrence Buell reanimates this supposedly antiquated idea, demonstrating that its history is a key to the dynamics of national literature and national identity itself."--From publisher.
