内容説明
This volume charts how the worker has been portrayed and sometimes misrepresented in American fiction. It examines novelistic treatment of "men's", "women's", "white" and "racialized" work that both mirror and reconfigure breadwinning in the United States.

内容説明
Labor's Text charts how the worker has been portrayed and often misrepresented in American fiction. Laura Hapke offers hundreds of depictions of wage earners: from fiction on the early artisan "aristocrats" to the Gilded Age's union-busting novelists to the year 2000's marginalized, apolitical men and women. Whether the authors discussed are pro- or anti-labor, Hapke illuminates the literary, historical, and intellectual contexts in which their fiction was produced and read.
