Publisher Description: This volume presents a wide-ranging selection of essays on Saul Bellow's fiction. The essays employ a variety of literary approaches, and all of the full-length novels and two of the most important novellas, Seize the Day and The Bellasrosa Connection, are discussed at length. In addition, Bellow's best collection of shorter works, Him with His Food in His Mouth and Other Stories, is the focus of one essay. Other essays examine Bellow's most anthologized early story, "Looking for Mr. Green," and the one of his best stories of the latter part of his career, the elegiac "Something to Remember Me By." |
