AUTHOR

Dos Passos, John

SUMMARY

"Because Mr. Dos Passos has realized that a shot fired in China, a kidnapped baby, a reconstruction finance corporation, a tennis tournament, a rumor that Baltimore and Ohio bonds are a good buy, and so on, can cause more perturbation or elation or depression in the minds of more people than traditional problems of virtue and vice, his novel is more true to life on a tightly meshed planet than most of us like to admit....[O]ne may safely call [Mr. dos Passos] the most adventurous, the most widely experienced, the man with the broadest sympathies (we do not say deepest), among our novelists since Sinclair Lewis bade goodbye to Martin Arrowsmith. Hemingway, who is Dos Passos's closest competitor in exploring the modern jungle, has been almost solely orientated in personal problems....[N]o one has ranged as widely in post-Dreiserian and post-Howellsian America as Mr. Dos Passos."Dos Passos, John is the author of '1919 ', published 2000 under ISBN 9780618056828 and ISBN 0618056823.
