City Novels

ENGL 0800A S01 [CRN: 24607]

We will discuss 20th-century novels and films about the city from the U.S. and England to ask a range of questions: In these works, how does the city shape the way we grow up, think, move, and see? How is the city divided by class, by race, by gender? Do these novels imagine potential solutions to the problems it sees? Authors may include Crane, Dos Passos, Woolf, Wright, Cisneros, Smith, Calvino. Students should register for ENGL 0800A S01 and may be assigned to conference sections by the instructor during the first week of class. DVPS
