Saul Bellow's Fiction (A Chicago Classic)

By Irving Malin

Saul Bellow is perhaps the most important living American novelist. Bellow has produced a significant body of work-- mature, human, imaginative--which will be read fifty years from now. By approaching his writings vertically, in depth, through detailed discussions of themes, characters, styles, and images, Malin guides the reader toward vital insights into Bellow's fictional kingdom. Mr. MaIin is frank and sensitive in his discussions of Bellow's fiction. He points up both flaws and assets and lays the foundation for students of literature, particularly of contemporary literature, to build on.
