First edition. Pages lightly toned. Very Good. 1983 Hard Cover. xii, 186 pp. In a time of realism and naturalism in American letters, when social and political concerns dominated the cultured scene, James Branch Cabell practiced without apology the anachronistic arts of allegory and medieval romance. ...But the coming of the Depression and then World War II made Cabell's intricate, morally rigorous fables seem somehow frivolous. ...The eight essays in this volume seek to provide a fresh appraisal of Cabell's place in American literary history and to reestablish his critical reputation.
