Tycoons and locusts; a regional look at Hollywood fiction of the 1930s PDF
By:Walter Wells
Published on 1973 by
The fascination and lure of Hollywood during the Great Depression are explored in this unique and perceptive book. Wells concentrates on eight works: James M. Cain’sThe Postman Always Rings Twice,Horace McCoy’sThey Shoot Horses,Don’tThey?,John O’Hara’sHope of Heaven,Nathanael West’sDay of the Locust,Budd Schulberg’sWhat Makes Sammy Run?,Raymond Chandler’sFarewell,My Lovely,and F. Scott Fitzgerald’sThe Last TycoonandThe Pat Hobby Stories. nbsp; Dominating and unifying the fiction discussed is an overriding theme of disshy;solution, of falseness, of cynicism, Wells finds. His conclusion, which makes this book more than just another study of the fiction of the 1930s, is that the Hollywood-Southland region imposed these attitudes on the writers, whose fiction thus illusshy;trates important and interesting literary uses of region.
