Klappentext zu „Southern Accents “
This book is a thorough critical analysis of the novels and short stories of Peter Hillsman Taylor. The focus is upon the identification and exploration of Taylor's major themes: the effects of heritage upon the individual, the initiation experiences that lead to self-discovery, the conflict between tradition and change, the struggle for power and identity, and the influence of place and the past. The author demonstrates how the fiction articulates Taylor's identity as a modern Southerner from a traditional, affluent family, and she defines Taylor's place in the Southern literary tradition. Students, teachers, and fans of American literature and particularly of contemporary Southern fiction will appreciate this insightful book.

Pressezitat
"Catherine Graham's study brings into focus many of Peter Taylor's valuable insights, missed by previous critics, into the ambiance of urban society in his native Tennessee. The book enhances substantially Taylor's growing recognition as a major interpreter of twentieth-century life in America's mid-South. More important, it reaffirms Taylor's place as a significant contributor to the maturation of the American short story." (J.A. Bryant, Jr., Professor of English, Emeritus, The University of Kentucky)
