West of Emerson by Kris Fresonke
Where did American literature start? The familiar story of Emerson and Thoreau has them setting up shop in Concord, Massachusetts, and determining the course of American writing. This title overhauls this story of origins as it shifts the context for these literary giants from the civilized East to the wide-open spaces of the Louisiana Purchase.
Kris Fresonke is Assistant Professor of English at Adelphi University.
