Thomas Austenfeld

Addressing a perceived gap in critiques of the works of four North American women expatriate authors in 1930s Germany, Austenfeld (language and literature, North Georgia State College/State U.) analyzes their responses to fascism as part of their creative development. Exploring the theme of personal ethics, the author compares Kay Boyle's novels such as Death of a Man (1936) with Katherine Anne Porter's Ship of Fools (1962). He also discusses Jean Stafford's collected stories of Heidelberg and Lillian Hellman's play, Watch on the Rhine. c. Book News Inc.
