Description

Writing Celebrity traces the rise of a national celebrity culture in the United States and examines the impact that this culture had on “literary” writing in the decades before World War II.  Galow demonstrate the relevance of celebrity for literary scholarship by re-evaluating the careers of two major American authors, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Gertrude Stein.
