John Fante
John Fante, an important figure in the history of the Italian-American novel, is proving to be fascinating to contemporary readers. Richard Collins has caught Fante's spirit from several crucial angles: as an ethnic writer; as a comic novelist; as a serious writer struggling to remain so in Hollywood. Intelligent, balanced, informative, and empathetic, this book combines criticism with scholarship, and biography with history to make what Henry James would have called a perfect 'literary portrait,' for it gives life to an interesting subject.
The Big Hunger
Published here for the first time, this text presents a collection of recently-discovered stories by John Fante.
Full of Life
In this biography of John Fante, one of the great lost souls of 20th-century literature, Stephen Cooper untangles the enigma of an authentic American original. By turns savage and poetic, violent and full of love, such novels as Ask the Dust reveal and disguise the author.
