Michael Robertson presents the first critical study of Stephen Crane's journalism and the broad climate of change that had begun to blur the line between nonfiction writing and fiction in Crane's era. Robertson provides fascinating insight into the masculine aesthetic Crane championed in his urban reportage, travel writing, and war correspondence, in contrast to an increasingly popular feminized image of artists and writers. Robertson also explores the life and work of two writers directly influenced by Crane: Ernest Hemingway and Theodore Dreiser.
In this lucid cultural history, Robertson goes beyond biography and literary criticism to trace a literary revolution that, as little studied as it has been, is a resonating strain in the genealogy of modern American literature.
