Reviews
Building on the achievement of Mark McGurl's The Program Era, After the Program Era is an outstanding collection of essays that stages a vital and ongoing debate about postwar American literature and the university. --Evan Brier, author, A Novel Marketplace: Mass Culture, the Book Trade, and Postwar American Fiction Mark McGurl's The Program Era made clear that it is impossible to understand postwar literature without attending to institutions. Glass et al. take this insight in important new directions, discussing such disparate phenomena as the early twentieth-century precursors of the writing program, Cold War diplomacy, and contemporary poetry readings. The case studies are compelling, and the volume as a whole does the vital service of reminding us how much work remains to be done. --Andrew Hoberek, University of Missouri
