Publisher's Synopsis
The fourteen lively essays in D.H. Lawrence's Literary Inheritors demonstrate Lawrence's great impact on twentieth-century fiction, poetry and drama. This unified collection examines Lawrence's influence on such writers as Tennessee Williams, Sherwood Anderson, Norman Mailer, Eudora Welty, Margaret Drabble, Raymond Carver, Joyce Carol Oates, William Carlos Williams and W.H. Auden. The book provides valuable new perspectives on the art of those whom Lawrence influenced and makes an original contribution to the complex, slippery notion of influence.
