[ED: Taschenbuch / Paperback], [PU: AV Akademikerverlag], Revision with unchanged content. In Love and Death in the American Novel, Leslie Fiedler argued that an obsession with death in the Americn novel results from the failure of love and sexuality in our culture.

Death is recurring feature in contemporary ethnic Ameri can fiction, often serving as an impetus to the narrative. This book examines the function of death in four novels of immigrant families in America: Fae Myenne Ng s Bone, Oscar Hijuelos s The Mambo Kings Play Songs of Love, Chang Rae Lee s Native Speaker, and Carole Maso s Ghost Dance.
