Description

Summary

This collection challenges our ideas about male emotion. Through readings of works by Thoreau, Lowell and W.E.B. Du Bois, and of 20th century authors such as Hemingway and Kerouac, this book questions the persistence of the emotionally alienated male in narratives of white middle-class masculinity.
