Dictionary of Midwestern Literature Volume One: The Authors

Philip A. Greasley, general editor

(Bloomington, Ind.: Indiana University Press, 2001. Pp. x, 666. Illustrations, suggestions for further reading, appendix, index. $59.95.)

This volume presents, in alphabetical order, approximately four hundred entries on individual authors. Each entry begins with name, birth and death dates, and major pseudonyms, and continues with sections on biography, literary significance, identification of major works, and suggestions for further secondary reading. The entries are signed and include the institutional affiliations of some one hundred contributors, all members of the Society for the Study of Midwestern Literature, the project's sponsor. This volume is the first of a proposed three for the Dictionary of Midwestern Literature. Volume two, in encyclopedia-entry format, will cover important historical and research sites, movements, themes, and genres; volume three will be a discursive, chapter-organized, literary history of the Midwest.
