Twenty-five years ago, Elizabeth Hardwick's now classic essay \"Seduction and Betrayal\" helped pioneer the study of women in fiction, both as writers and as characters. \u003cb\u003eAmerican Fictions\u003c\/b\u003e gathers fro the first time Hardwick's portraits of America's greatest writers. Many of these pieces double as individual reminiscences about close friends, including Mary McCarthy, Katherine Anne Porter and Edmund Wilson. Hardwick has achieved a permanent place in American letters for her sharp and elegant style. Her essays are themselves a work of literature.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Modern Library","offers":[{"title":"American Fictions | Elizabeth Hardwick | Paperback | 9780375754821 | Used: Like New | Literary Criticism 1704592","offer_id":50832351625474,"sku":"1704592","price":21.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/71elDQxV4EL.jpg?v=1792603002","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/american-fictions","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
