About This Novel

Borges's introductory course on literature, a map of the evolution of American literature. "An Introduction to American Literature" is a work co-written by Borges and Estelle Semberlein de Torres Dugan. It starts from the morning when the Puritans on the "Mayflower" landed on the East Coast, sorting out the history of American literature in three centuries. This book does not stop at psychoanalysis, social history and other organizing clues. Instead, it obeys the call of the work and intersperses topics not covered in other large works, such as detective novels, science fiction novels, western literature and the unique poetry of red-skinned aborigines, "outlining a trajectory of the evolution of American literature."
