Levine, Robert S. (ed.)

Norton anthology of American literature - 9th ed. - Ney York W. W. Norton & Company 2017 - 3V. (1915p. 966p. 1180p.)

Volume C, D and E

The most-trusted anthology for complete works, balanced selections and helpful editorial apparatus, The Norton Anthology of American Literature features a cover-to-cover revision. The ninth edition introduces new General Editor Robert Levine and three new-generation editors who have reenergised the volume across the centuries. Fresh scholarship, new authors―with an emphasis on contemporary writers―new topical clusters and a new ebook make the Norton Anthology an even better teaching tool and an unmatched value for students.

One of the most distinctive features of twentieth- and twenty-first-century American literature is a rich vein of African American poetry. This edition adds two contemporary poets from this living tradition: Natasha Trethewey and Tracy K. Smith. Trethewey's selections include personal and historical elegies; Smith draws on cultural materials as diverse as David Bowie's music and the history of the Hubble Space Telescope. These writers join African American poets whose work has long helped define the anthology Rita Dove, Gwendolyn Brooks, Robert Hayden, Audre Lorde, and others.
