Joseph Hergesheimer

    Joseph Hergesheimer was een vooraanstaand Amerikaans schrijver uit het begin van de 20e eeuw, bekend om zijn naturalistische romans over het decadente leven van de zeer rijken. Hij vestigde een vroege reputatie met zijn eerste roman in 1914. Zijn werken werden gekenmerkt door een bloemrijke, beschrijvende stijl die hij 'estheticisme' noemde en die zich richtte op personages uit de hogere klasse. Hergesheimers romans kregen kritische erkenning voor hun gedetailleerde weergave van het luxueuze leven en de morele neergang binnen de samenleving, waarmee hij een indringend beeld van zijn tijd schiep.
