James Tuttleton, who died in November 1998, was professor of English at New York University and author of Vital Signs (published by Ivan R. Dee) and of The Novel of Manners in America.
There are precious few literary critics who take a close look at
the words, at the story, and give us some real sense of what
American writers have written about America. James Tuttleton is one
of these.
*International Herald Tribune*
This reminds us of why we like to read, and why we read what we
do.
*The Hudson Review*
For all of Tuttleton's curmudgeonly conservatism, he is correct in
his assertion that literature cannot be reduced to ideology and
that the relationship of politics to protest in fiction is nothing
if not delicate.
*The New York Times*
