More about the book

Focusing on the evolution of gender politics and modern male homosexuality, this work explores Henry James's influence on Willa Cather, Gertrude Stein, and Ernest Hemingway. It examines American masculinity in fiction from 1875 to 1935, while also considering significant events like the Oscar Wilde trials in England. The study details James's engagement with sexual politics throughout his career and assesses how his legacy shaped Cather's portrayal of queer characters, Stein's literary theories, and Hemingway's self-image as a quintessential American author.
