Still the New World American Literature in a Culture of Creative Destruction

"There is something self-descriptive about Fisher's discussion of the ''easy, light-fitting American personality'' that he says is captured in Whitman's line about 'the loose drift of character, the inkling through random types.' STILL THE NEW WORLD itself drifts loosely over the American landscape, illuminating major cultural currents and dipping into literary and artistic thickets that make for fascinating, if random, exploration."Fisher, Philip is the author of 'Still the New World American Literature in a Culture of Creative Destruction', published 1999 under ISBN 9780674838598 and ISBN 0674838599.
