reviewed American Procession on January 16, 2016 American Procession
A moving, indispensable overview of the major American writers from 1830 to 1930, from Hawthorne and Melville to Hemingway, Fitzgerald, and Faulkner. I just adore Alfred Kazin, one of the greatest American critics. He illuminates these great writers with such a burning light of love, compassion, insight and intimacy that one can't help running to the book shelf to crack open one's Whitman, et. al., once again.
