The Literary Cold War" concentrates on authors who straddle the line between aesthetic project and political allegory, paying particular attention to the work of Vladimir Nabokov and Graham Greene. A paranoid plotline informs these and other Anglo-American texts, from Storm Jameson and John Dos Passos to Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes, and they commonly trade in the figure of the non-aligned neutral observer who finds himself caught up in sacrificial triangles. Following the lead of prominent historians of the period, this volume gives shape to a new field in literary studies&mdashthe, literary Cold War.
