(...)
"The list of novelists who called it home at some point in their lives is a
complete pantheon of American literature. James Fenimore Cooper, Louisa May
Alcott, Herman Melville, Mark Twain, William Dean Howells, Stephen Crane,
Jack London, Frank Norris, Edith Wharton, and Henry James. Upton Sinclair
and Sinclair Lewis. Ford Madox Ford and Sherwood Anderson. John Dos Passos
and William Faulkner. Henry Miller and Anaïs Nin. Henry Roth and Katherine
Anne Porter, Mary McCarthy, Nathanael West, James T. Farrell, Richard
Wright, James Agee, James Baldwin. John Cheever, Saul Bellow, E. L.
Doctorow, and James Jones. Jack Kerouac and William Burroughs. Louis
Auchincloss and Joan Didion and Gore Vidal. J. D. Salinger and William
Gaddis. William Styron and Donald Barthelme. Hubert Selby and Thomas
Pynchon. Norman Mailer, of course - who wrote "The Time of Her Time" about a
sexual marathon in the Village. And the five novelists who have sections in
this book - Willa Cather, Theodore Dreiser, Thomas Wolfe, Djuna Barnes, and
Dawn Powell."
