Jewish American writing is an exciting and controversial genre within post-war literature. Jewish AmericanLiterature since 1945 offers a student guide to the major writers, their key works, and their cultural and philosophical backgrounds.

The themes, issues and philosophies of key writers such as Saul Bellow, Erica Jong, Arthur Miller, Cynthia Ozick, Philip Roth, and Isaac Bashevis Singer are inter-related, and wider literary and historical topics are explained.
