Excerpt from The Novel of Tomorrow: And the Scope of Fiction
The articles in this volume first ap peared in a supplement to The New Republic of April 12, 1922, on The Novel of Tomorrow and the Scope of Fiction. Thanks to the suggestion of The bobbs-merrill Company and to the generosity of the several contribu tors, they now reappear in book form for the benefit of the Authors' League Fund for writers in distress. A few changes and corrections have been made. We regret that previous ar rangements on their part prevent the inclusion of Willa S. Cather's The Novel Démeublé and Theodore Drei.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This insightful work delves into the dynamics of literature's nature and scope, featuring contributions from twelve celebrated American novelists. Amidst a climate of heightened censorship and societal unrest, the book explores the evolution of the novel as a form capable of reflecting the complexity of contemporary life. The authors argue that the novel's primary purpose is not to mirror reality but to provide an emotionally resonant interpretation of the world, offering readers a means to grapple with life's complexities and gain a deeper understanding of themselves. Through a nuanced examination of form, style, and the interplay between fiction and autobiography, this book challenges conventional notions of realism and encourages a reevaluation of the novel's potential for social commentary and artistic expression.
