"Literature, Moderns, Monsters, Popsters and Us" is a selection from more than one hundred articles, reviews and essays written by George Stade and first published in journals such as "Partisan Review", "Hudson Review", "Paris Review", "Harper's", "The Nation", "The New Republic" and "The New York Times Book Review". Stade challenges with his controversial contention that "womanism" has triumphed over "manism" and his wit flies with a rip-roaring excursion into "snot, navel-fluff and toe-jam" in an examination of James Joyce's "Ulysses". The collection includes: Psychoanalysis and the horror genre; Popular fiction; Poetry, including e.e. cummings and Sylvia Plath; Frisch and Durrenmatt; McCarthyism; and Modern British fiction.
