The world of Michael Chabon comes alive in the first full-length, analytical guide devoted to this brilliantly creative writer.
Helene Meyers is professor of English and McManis University Chair at Southwestern University in Georgetown, TX.
Meyers (English, Southwestern U.) offers what can be described as a
handbook for readers of contemporary novelist Michael Chabon. The
book covers Chabon's life and work, including his journeys into
adventure and detective fiction. As a reference guide, the book
will help readers keep up with his complex plots and to draw the
thematic connections common to his major novels, and to see his
fiction as commentary on modern masculinity and Jewish identity.
The book is intended for book club members and high school and
college students.
