Larry McMurtry and the American West: A Literary Relationship
ISBN: 9780929398341 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 358 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is the first major single-authored book in almost twenty years to examine the life and work of Texas' foremost novelist and to develop coherent patterns of theme, structure, symbol, imagery, and influence in Larry McMurtry's work. The study focuses on the novelist's relationship to the Southwest, theorizing that his writing exhibits a deep ambivalence toward his home territory. The course of his career demonstrates shifting attitudes that have led him toward, away from, and then back again to his home place and the "cowboy god" that dominates its mythology. The book...

Cedar Crossing
ISBN: 9780875655451 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Trans-Cedar lynching is an infamous tale buried deep in the subconscious of rural Texas history--although it made front-page headlines in the "Dallas Morning News" and even in national newspapers from May through November of 1899. This horrifying event is at the center of a compelling novel by author Mark Busby. He has not only researched original documents but has used family oral histories to probe the mysteries that still shroud a lynching that is as horrifying and baffling now as it must have been over a hundred years ago. The "War of Northern Aggression" was still fresh in the memory...

ISBN: 9780890964170 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The frontier has evoked a set of images, attitudes, and assumptions that have shaped a peculiarly American literary heritage.
