Homelessness in American Literature: Romanticism, Realism and Testimony - Studies in American Popular History and Culture 1st edition
John Allen
This book analyzes the theme of homelessness in American literature from the Civil War through the depression. Drawing on the work of Harriet Beecher Stowe, Horatio Alger, Stephen Crane, Jacob Riis, Jack London, Meridel Le Sueur and many others, it reveals how homelessness has been either romanticized or objectified.
