Just Representations
This volume was published to mark the seventy-fifth birthday, 19 August 1978, of James Gould Cozzens. The complete novel, the selections from six of Cozzen's major novels, and the stories, essays, and reviews included here furnish a comprehensive overview of and an introduction to the canon of a major American novelist. The book provides a permanently usable collection for new readers of James Gould Cozzens as well as an omnibus for the initiated.--Provided by publisher.
James Gould Cozzens
During the early 1930s, after James Gould Cozzens had published four romantic novels and then withdrawn them from circulation, he wrote the first three of what Brenden Gill called his eight "canonical works." But it was only after the publication of By Love Possessed in 1957 that he achieved wide popularity. Mooney closely examines each of Cozzens' novels, isolating and defining his main themes and addressing the critical acclaim and condemnation of his works.Among the novels Mooney analyzes are: S.S. San Pedro, Castaway, The Last Adam, Men and Brethren, Ask Me Tomorrow, The Just and the Unjust, Guard of Honor, and By Love Possessed.
James Gould Cozzens
Drawing on diaries, notebooks, letters, and accounts from those who knew James Gould Cozzens, the author presents a biography of an American author whom he considers to be one of the major novelists of the twentieth century.

The first descriptive bibliography of Cozzens, this work adds many previously unrecorded items to the Cozzens canon. During the last years of his life, Cozzens assisted Proessor Bruccoli with this bibliography. Since Cozzens revised his work after publication, a particularly important feature of this bibliography is the collation of the author's textual alterations in his novels.--Provided by publisher.
James Gould Cozzens
When James Gould Cozzens died on 9 August 1978, his literary career had spanned 13novels and 54 years, and his dedication to his craft had produced a body of fiction unsurpassed in its fidelity to life and in hard intelligence. Yet, the brilliant body of work by this master American novelist has elicited little critical attention. The process of reappraisal commences with this volume. The essays assembled here, for the most part previously unpublished, indicate some worthwhile critical approaches and suggest useful areas for further examination. Contributors include Louis O. Coxe, Colin Cass, John William Ward, Pierre Michel, Robert Scholes, R. H. W. Dillard, R. V. Cassill, Morris H. Wolff, and Leland H. Cox, Jr.
