Imagining Home

American War Fiction from Hemingway to 9/11

Meer over het boek

Challenging traditional gender roles in wartime narratives, this book analyzes how American writers depict the interplay between war and domesticity. By examining works from Hemingway, Vonnegut, and O'Brien, it highlights female characters' active roles in conflict and male characters' longing for home. The study contextualizes these authors within their historical settings and explores how their portrayals of gender relationships and trauma evolve, culminating in an analysis of post-9/11 literature that reflects the merging of public and private experiences of war.
