Nobody's home : speech, self, and place in American fiction from Hawthorne to DeLillo
1993
Overview
This book has been taking shape for some ten years now, and I can accurately pinpoint its origin: my stint as Fulbright professor of American literature at Stockholm University in 1982-83. At that point I had the challenging experience of teaching American fiction to Swedish university students, and although my notions of what is “American” had been percolating ever since my student days in Paris, I found that this particular venture, namely, looking at American texts “from outside in,” triggered a process of reflection and self-definition that was to have real consequences.
